Creating Profiled Columns in Archicad ? How to ?

Anonymous · ‎2009-10-02

I am trying to replicate a profiled cast iron column. So far, the best method I have come up with is to use the beam tool to create a slim beam and then apply a complex profile. Is there a better way ?

These are what I am trying to achieve:-

And how would I achieve the detail of the top of the columns ?
