Trajan's Column is estimated to weigh around 1,110 tons.
There are 120 scenes depicted on the column of Marcus Aurelius in Rome. These scenes spiral around the column and depict various military campaigns and battles of Emperor Marcus Aurelius.
A stone column rising from the floor of a cave is called a stalagmite. It forms over thousands of years as mineral-rich water drips from the ceiling and deposits minerals on the cave floor, gradually building up into a column shape.
Actually, not one person built the column but many. The main investors who invested in building it were the Great Northern Railway and Vincent Astor.
An arch redistributes some of the weight of a keystone so a doorway can be wider that if the builders used a simple lintel (a piece that goes straight from one column to another). There are several kinds of arches: the Roman, or semicircular, arch; the Gothic and the Hittite (or parabolic) arches.
Mount Pinatubo exploded, creating an ash column about 7 km (4.5 miles) high.
To calculate the self-weight of a column, you need to know the volume of the column (cross-sectional area multiplied by height) and the density of the material the column is made of. Multiply the volume by the density to get the self-weight of the column.
To calculate the self-weight of a column, first determine the volume of the column by multiplying its cross-sectional area by its height. Then multiply the volume by the density of the material the column is made of (typically concrete or steel) to obtain the self-weight.
Yes but concrete is going to crack if it has too much stress. If it's a decorative column then use a 4000 mix. If it has a load on it you will have to figure how much weight is going to be on it.
An engaged column
Trajan's column is a memorial column depicting Trajan's victory over the Dacians. It reveals in full detail the stages and nuances of Roman battle. The physical column itself is a masterpiece not only of carving but also of engineering as the column is made of heavy carved drums and each drum section had to be raised to be set on top of the one below it. The interior, has a spiral staircase which is lighted by 43 windows, and leads up to the viewing platform on the top.

No the extension column does not effect weight limits.
A column is used to support the weight of the roof and/or the upper floors. Now a days, a lot of columns are used for decorative purposes. A column along with load bearing beams can support a lot of weight.

The Roman Emperor.. .. since I guess you mean the Emperor who built the Wall in Britain..
Dacia, Nabataea, Arabia.
You don't feel the weight of the air column because the air pressure inside your body and the air pressure outside your body are equalized. This balance prevents you from feeling the weight of the column of air pressing down on you.
