The height of a column includes capital and base (Ex. 8' = shaft 7', 61/2" capital and base total 8'). • Cap and base fit on top and bottom of column insulating the column from the elements. • Split columns are not load bearing. • Store columns in a dry, well- ventilated area. • For exterior applications: Paint inside of column shaft with a nonfibrous asphaltum type roof coating. Application must reach minimum 48" up the inside bottom of the column shaft and must be painted. • Wood columns require ventilation at the top and bottom. • Failure to adhere to installation instructions voids the warranty.
