At a point ^ from the bottom draw a horizontal lineacross the center line of the column, and with the point ofintersection as a center, describe a semicircle. From thispoint the column is tapered upward. Divide the heightinto any number of equal parts. From the end of the topdiameter of the column, which is -; of the diameter at thebottom, drop a perpendicular upon the semicircle at thepoint D. Divide the arc DE into the same number ofequal parts as is the upper part of the column. From eachone of these points erect perpendiculars to the divisionlines across. The points of intersection will be points onthe surface of the column. The points F show the intersec-tions, and the points CI the outline. Second Method of Tapering Columns.
