A caisson is what you make to keep water away while you construct a column in a river or lake.
Decorative column.
A beam will be placed horizontally, a column will be placed vertically.
Starter may be defined as a base structure before casting of column to keep column in fixed position and to erect form-work.

A Lally Lock column is a concrete filled steel column that does not need to have the cap or base plates welded. The top end of the column is fitted with an embedded fastening unit that will accept a 1/2" screw to fasten the cap plate onto the column. The bottom end it just concrete and can be cut with a pipe cutter. Base plates are fastened with concrete screws.

Caisson
In the old days it was called a Caisson.
In engineering Caisson is used to refer to a water retaining structure. Caissons are constructed to keep water out off an area. There are four different types of caissons.
There are many definitions for a caisson. This can be an underwater chamber that is filled with compressed air for the purpose of creating a working environment such as for construction of a bridge or underwater tunnel. A caisson is also a chest that is used to hold ammunition or a 2 wheeled cart that can be attached to a horse for hauling purposes such as during the civil war times.
The caisson gate on the Thompson drydock opened through a system of buoyancy and counterweights. When the drydock was flooded, the caisson, which was sealed at the entrance, would float up slightly, allowing for the opening mechanism to be engaged. This process would typically involve releasing water from the drydock, lowering the water level, and allowing the gate to swing open. The design ensured that the caisson sealed tightly when submerged, preventing water from entering the drydock while it was in use.
