Cutting Columns at Bead/AstragalAll DuraCast™ Round Tapered Fiberglass Columns used with Decorative Capitals should be cut flush above the bead.

The Decorative Capital should rest on the top of the bead to allow for the proper fit on the column. The cut at bead loss and the Decorative Capital height must be taken into consideration when ordering columns. A column used with a short Decorative Capital may require a longer shaft.
