Square, paneled, Tuscan Columns are made of a cast composite of hi-tech resin, fiberglass and marble aggregate making them very strong, capable of bearing loads of up to 18,000 LBS each. The columns are guaranteed against rot, insect damage and wear from the weather for 20 Years. The columns are also highly resistant to physical abrasion and fire. With our optional PostCore™, installation is greatly simplified and the structural qualities are greatly enhanced particularly when columns are used to support unbraced overhead loads such as an arbor, trellis or pergola. Tuscan Capital and Base are made of the same composite and are included with each column.

Additional note on PostCore™
The
application and use of composite and fiberglass columns for
structural use, is coming under increasing scrutiny by building
officials nationwide. The ability of fiberglass or composite columns to resist lateral loads such as wind is negligable (see the ICC report ACCEPTANCE CRITERIA FOR FIBER-REINFORCED POLYMER (FRP)
COMPOSITE COLUMNS USED AS AXIAL LOAD-BEARING AND
NONLOAD-BEARING ARCHITECTURAL AND DECORATIVE COLUMNS). In particualar Sec 6.4 The answer to this dilema is the column
with PostCore™ by FineHouse. In
all cases, columns with PostCore™ can meet local code requirments when the PostCore™ is used as recommended by the local building official or structural engineer.
