Column Cross Sec­tion

Rectangular, Circu­lar or Profiled.

Defined in Column Settings

Column_CrossSection.png 

Core Height / Diameter

For a rectangular or profiled Column: One of the dimen­sions of the Column in cross-section. (The other dimen­sion is "Core Width".)

 

Does not include veneer. (To include veneer, use the General "Width" parameter.)

For a circular Column: the diameter of the Column.

Core Width

For a rectangular or profiled Column: One of the two dimensions of the Column in cross-section. (The other dimension is "Core Height / Diameter".)

 

Does not include Veneer. (To include veneer, use the General "Width" parameter.)

For a circular Column: the diameter of the Column.
