Load applied concentrically through axis
of column. Loads valid only if uniform contact between full area
of column ends and cap and base units. Loads are provided as
a convenience and are not an exact value. Consult a structural
engineer for accurate load estimates. Shaft thickness may vary
for interior columns. |
