Decorative vs Structural Columns

A marble column may be decorative or form part of a structural assembly.

• Lateral load

• Reinforcement system

• Core structure

• Anchorage

The final load-bearing design should be approved by the responsible architect or structural engineer.

Pakistan Onyx Marble can then manufacture the stone components according to the approved technical drawings.
