Doric Column Base
Polure Doric column bases provide a clean classical plinth foundation for structural pillar surrounds and decorative interior columns. Molded from high-density rigid polyurethane (150-220 kg/m³), these Doric base elements deliver wood-equivalent mechanical strength and high impact resistance, protecting column bottoms from everyday foot traffic and cleaning equipment. Their closed-cell structural composition ensures water absorption stays below 1%, preventing rot, swelling, or mold in humid interior rooms and outdoor porch environments. Rated B2 for fire safety and stable from -100 °C / +80 °C, they arrive pre-coated with a white acrylic technical primer. Installation requires dual fastening using polyurethane assembly adhesive and countersunk screws.
Frequently Asked Questions
What characterizes a Polure Doric column base?
A Doric column base features simple geometric torus moldings and a sturdy square or round plinth profile characteristic of classical Doric architecture.
Are Polure Doric column bases load-bearing?
No, Polure Doric column bases are non-load-bearing decorative elements. Structural column weight must rest on internal steel posts.
What density material is used for Doric column bases?
They are molded from high-density rigid polyurethane (150-220 kg/m³), offering high physical impact resistance.
How are Doric column bases mounted during installation?
Apply continuous lines of PU assembly adhesive along all joining edges and floor/wall contact surfaces, then secure with mechanical countersunk screws. Fill screw heads with putty, sand, and paint.
Can silicone adhesive be used to mount Doric column bases?
No, silicone adhesive is strictly forbidden because it lacks structural bonding capability. Only polyurethane assembly adhesive paired with mechanical screws must be used.
