more directness than thehelix, yet without exhibiting any abruptswerve from the perpendicular. The col-umn thereby gains grace and loses weight.The loss in weight is represented by thearea bounded by the fanoid and helixshown at Diagram 2. The scale elevation, at Diagram 3, showsthe appearance of the fanoidal entasis asnear as a scale elevation can. But the curveof any type of entasis is so subtle, and ofsuch comparatively minute horizontal ex-tent, that it is utterly out of the question toshow it correctly on a scale detail. In thecase of fanoidal entasis, a sufficiently closeapproximation can be achieved, in a scaledetail or elevation, by making the entasisoffset equal to 1 2 P at a height equal to2 3 Q, and then drawing as smooth a curvethrough this and the limiting points as yourability allows. A detail graph, as at Dia-gram 2, will then take care of the eventualcurve, and the manner in which it goestumbling home. THE ARCHITECT AND ENGINEER ^tf 23 ^^ JANUARY, NINETEEN THIRTY-FOUR
