Columns are essential structural components in architecture and engineering that bear loads by compression, directing the weight of upper structures to foundational elements below. To withstand lateral forces generated by wind or earthquakes, columns can be designed with special consideration. Members subject to similar compressive stresses often share this name, even if their specific roles differ from standard columns. Typically used to support beams and arches that hold walls and ceilings aloft, columns serve as primary vertical supports in various building frameworks. While "column" implies a structural focus, architectural interpretations encompass proportional and aesthetic attributes, blurring the lines between functional necessity and decorative expression. Engaged with a wall or standing alone, many columns balance form and purpose, reflecting varying architectural designs.
