4th March 2020 To 4th yr students …

I am finding students hesitating on columns


inside a lobby/foyer/wide corridors/interactive
spaces etc.

Here are some images where there are columns


in such spaces – it is how you design & treat the
columns inside such a space. You do not have to
shun columns in such spaces.

Please notice the huge Cantilever. Please also notice how that
structure is extended so much behind and anchored to the main
structure (probably up to 2 structural bays inside)

So, should you still shy away from
columns in such spaces?

You could. But you need not. It is


up to you to decide.

Thank you
