Common terminology used when designing and setting monuments Glossary TTERRMINOLOG OLOGY ABRASIVE Product that does the cutting in the sandblasting process (the sand). Abrasives come in a variety of forms, such as zirconia alundum “stoneblast” and calcined bauxite “sinterball.” APEX The highest point of a monument where the four sides are tapered together. This word stems from the Latin for “top” or “summit.” BASE The flat, top portion of any monument base which is cut to fit the bottom (joint) of the tablet, or main part of the monument. BELTS/SLINGS Nylon straps used for the lifting of memorials. BEVEL MARKER A rectangular, angled or sloped-top marker. BLUED A term that describes the deepened color given to a monument by an abrasive used in sandblasting. BUFFING Applying the final touch to the stone’s polished surface. CAD PROGRAM This is generally defined as a “Computer Aided Design” program. They are available from a number of different software packages. CAP The uppermost portion of a monument set on top of a tablet. There may be more than one piece to a cap. CARVING The process of shaping stone to the desired effect; includes sandblast, sculptural, shape, line and hand carv- ing. CEMETERY Any area set aside for the burial of the dead; also stems from the Latin meaning of “sleeping place.” CHAMFER A beveled or tapered edge made by cutting away of square edge on a monument. CHECK A cut or recess in the stone, normally on the top or ends; a rabbet-shaped cutting. CHIPPED Means exactly what it says – small chips mar the edge of a stone. COLUMBARIUM A vault with niches for urns containing ashes of the dead. COLUMNAR An orderly arrangement of single or double columns on a monument. COLUMN Any pillar consisting of a base, a cylindrical shaft and a capital or crown. There are five types of columns – sometimes referred to as the five orders of architecture. The five orders differ in the proportions of their columns and in richness of their ornamentation. These orders have long been called the Tuscan Order, Doric Order, Ionic Order, Corinthian Order and the Composite Order. The Doric, Ionic and Corinthian orders are the most important since they are in more general use. Doric – The most simple and the oldest of all column designs. Named for the Dorian’s, who created it on the Aegean Islands, the Doric order originally had heavy, fluted columns with no base and plain, saucer-like capitals. The cornice was bold and simple. The Romans eventually modified this to as we know it today. Ionic – Another classical Greek column that was modified by the Romans, the Ionic order originally was topped by two opposing volutes or scroll-like ornaments on the capital or crown. Ionic flutes differ from Doric flutes in that they are beveled. Corinthian – The most ornate of the three Greco-Roman orders. As originally designed by the Greeks, it had a slender, fluted column with a highly ornate bell-shaped capital decorated with acanthus leaves. The Romans altered this design slightly as well. Composite – The composite capital is a mixture of elements of the Ionic and Corinthian capitals. Its forms and general proportions are like those of the Corinthian Order. There are two banks of leaves placed as in the Corinthian, but the upper part uses Ionic Capital volutes placed at an angle. Tuscan – The most simple of the five orders. Comparatively few lines are required to express its component parts. The five orders have one proportion in common, viz. Viz is the relation of the height of the column to the height of the entablature. The entablature in all five orders is one quarter the column height. The height of the column in any order is, therefore, the height of four entablatures, and the height of the entablature, although a variable quantity will always bear a certain relation to the general height of the order 129
130 CONCAVE A curve matching the inner surface of a sphere. CONVEX The opposite of concave; any cut matching the outer surface of a sphere.
