columns (architectural elements) (<columns and column components>, <supporting and resisting elements>, ... Components (hierarchy name))

 

Note: In the discipline of architecture, refers to cylindrical or slightly tapering, vertical members made to either give support or to appear to give support. They usually comprise three sections: base, capital, and shaft. The term also refers to all uprights in steel frame or concrete frame structures. Columns may occasionally stand alone as a monument, for example in Trajan's Column in Rome or Nelson's Column in London. Columns may be used as decorative elements on furniture. For square or rectangular members, either in masonry construction or classically treated, and for massive uprights in Medieval architecture, see "piers (supporting elements)"; for wooden square uprights, see "posts."

Additional Notes:
Arabic ..... في مجال الهندسة المعمارية، يشير هذا المصطلح إلى العناصر العمودية الأسطوانية أو المستدقة قليلاً، والتي يتم إنشاؤها إما لتقديم الدعم أو للظهور وكأنها تقدم الدعم. وهي تتألف عادة من ثلاثة أقسام: القاعدة، التاج، والعمود. يشير المصطلح أيضًا إلى جميع القوائم في الهياكل الفولاذية أو الهياكل الخرسانية. قد تقف الأعمدة في بعض الأحيان بمفردها كنصب تذكاري، على سبيل المثال في عمود تراجان في روما أو عمود نيلسون في لندن. يمكن استخدام الأعمدة كعناصر زخرفية على الأثاث. بالنسبة للأعضاء المربعة أو المستطيلة، سواء في البناء الحجري أو المعالجة بشكل كلاسيكي، وللقوائم الضخمة في عمارة العصور الوسطى، انظر "الأرصفة (العناصر الداعمة)"؛ للاطلاع على القوائم الخشبية المربعة، راجع "الداعامات". 
Dutch ..... Wordt in de bouwkunde gebruikt om te verwijzen naar cilindrische of enigszins taps toelopende, rechtopstaande metselwerken, die meestal een dragende functie hebben of lijken te hebben. Ze bestaan uit drie onderdelen: voetstuk, kapiteel en schacht. De term kan ook verwijzen naar alle rechtopstaande delen in een stalen of betonnen raamwerk. Ook komen zuilen soms ook voor als vrijstaand monument, bijvoorbeeld de Zuil van Trajanus in Rome of de Zuil van Nelson in Londen. Zuilen kunnen voorts als decoratief element in meubilair worden toegepast. Zie 'pijlers (dragende elementen)' voor vierkante of rechthoekige delen, in metselwerk of klassiek bewerkt, en voor de massieve rechtopstaande delen uit de middeleeuwse architectuur. Zie 'palen' voor vierkante, rechtopstaande stutten van hout. 
German ..... In der Architektur bezieht sich der Begriff auf zylindrische oder sich leicht verjüngende, vertikale Elemente, die entweder als Stütze dienen oder wie eine solche aussehen. Sie bestehen in der Regel aus drei Abschnitten: Sockel, Kapitell und Schaft. Der Begriff bezieht sich auch auf alle Stützen in Stahlrahmen- oder Betonrahmenkonstruktionen. Säulen können gelegentlich allein als Monument stehen, wie z. B. die Trajanssäule in Rom oder die Nelsonsäule in London. Säulen können als Schmuckelemente an Möbeln verwendet werden. Für quadratische oder rechteckige Bauteile, entweder in Steinbauweise oder klassisch bearbeitet, und für massive Ständer in der mittelalterlichen Architektur, siehe "Pfeiler (tragende Elemente)"; für hölzerne quadratische Ständer, siehe "Pfosten (Bauelement)". 
Italian ..... Nella disciplina dell'architettura, si riferisce a elementi cilindrici, realizzati per dare supporto o apparire per dare supporto. Di solito comprendono tre sezioni: base, capitale, e asta. Il termine si riferisce anche a tutti i montanti in strutture in acciaio o calcestruzzo. Per gli elementi quadrati o rettangolari e per montanti massicci in architettura medievale, vedere "piers (supporting elements)"; per i montanti quadrati di legno, vedere "posts."
