The crossword clue "Vertical pillar or support" refers to "COLUMN." In architectural terms, a column is a vertical structural element that serves the purpose of supporting beams, arches, or roofs. Columns are crucial in transferring loads from the structure above to the foundation below, providing stability and strength to buildings and other constructions. They can be made from various materials, including stone, wood, concrete, or metal, and come in a range of styles that often reflect the architectural design of the structure.
Columns can be purely functional, but they are also frequently designed with aesthetic considerations in mind, featuring decorative elements such as capitals and bases. In classical architecture, for instance, different styles of columns—such as Doric, Ionic, and Corinthian—are distinguished by their specific proportions and embellishments. Beyond architecture, the term "column" can also apply to other contexts, such as a column in a newspaper that provides commentary or information, demonstrating the versatility of the term in both physical and metaphorical uses.
