Text Appearing Before Image:
ll, and bisect it by Jl. The point / where ^ meetsgli prolonged, is the center for the arc liiaj which completesthe curve of the face of the Scotia. The Tuscan Pedestal. In all the orders we have the general rule that the pedes-tal is \ part of the combined height of pedestal, column,and capital, or it is 4-; moduli. Vignola gives the base ofthe pedestal a height of i modulus, adorned by a listel (E)and a hllet (D). The cap of the pedestal is also ^ modulus high, andis made up of an ogee (B), with a fillet (A) over it.Both the base and cap project i modulus from the side ofthe plinth. The plinth is 3; moduli in height. The Base of the Column. The base of the column must be placed over the cap ofthe pedestal and be of the same width as the plinth. Theheight of the base of the column is 1 modulus, and its pro-jection is 4i parts from the side of the column. In the figure, A is the shaft of the column, B its bottomfillet, — the same for columns of all orders, — C the bull,D the base.
Text Appearing After Image:
PLATE III. THE TUSCAN CAPITAL AND ENTABLATURE. ViGNOLA gives the Tuscan capital a height of 1 modulusand a projection of 5 parts. The frieze of the capital has the same diameter as theupper part of the shaft of the column. The entablature — that is^ the architrave, frieze, and cor-nice — is 3;- moduli in height, which is one-quarter of thecombined height of base, columu, and capital. The architrave is 1 modulus in height, and is adorned bya lis tei of \ of its height and \ projection. The frieze isIJ- moduli in height. The cornice is 1^ moduli and projects1\ moduli. The outline is as follows : a, cornice ; frieze ; c, listel,or fillet of architrave ; listel of capital ; abacus of capi-tal ; /, frieze of capital ; top bead of column, — this lastis the same in all orders, — li, the shaft of the column ; A,plan of the capital.
