Column Cover Detailing

Coordinated Details for Architectural Column Enclosures

Column covers are architectural enclosure systems used to conceal structural columns while providing the required finish and visual appearance for the building.

Depending on the system, covers may attach to structural steel or concrete columns through steel studs, clip angles, brackets or other sub-framing components.

Our detailing focuses on the geometry, attachment conditions and fabrication information required to coordinate these assemblies with the supporting structure.

Typical Detailing Scope
  • Column cover plans and elevations
  • Cover profiles and panel geometry
  • Steel stud sub-framing
  • Clip angles and brackets
  • Connection and attachment details
  • Joints and panel interfaces
  • Fabrication dimensions
  • Installation and erection information

Common Questions About Architectural Metal Detailing

What are column cover shop drawings?

Column cover shop drawings document the geometry, dimensions, support framing, attachments and fabrication details needed to manufacture and install architectural column enclosures.

Can column covers attach to both steel and concrete columns?

Yes. Depending on the specified system, architectural covers may be supported from structural steel or concrete columns using suitable sub-framing, brackets or attachment systems.

Do you detail support framing and clip angles?

Yes, where included in the project scope. Detailing can include steel studs, clip angles, brackets and related support components.

Do you provide cornice fabrication drawings?

Yes. Cornice detailing can include profiles, sections, support framing, joints, transitions and fabrication dimensions based on the supplied project information.
