Column stays the same on all non tapered columns. This was done to the columns to add visual interest to them. The ionic order and the corinthian orders are the only column styles that have fillets and flutes. The doric style has flutes but not fillets. Doric flutes are connected at a sharp point where the fillets are located on ionic and corinthian order columns. Most classical columns arise from a basis, or base, that rests on the stylobate, or foundation, except for those of the Doric order, which usually rest directly on the stylobate. The basis may consist of several
Ionic radius radii. The relation between soft-sphere ionic radii, formula_2 and formula_3, and formula_1, is given by formula_5, where formula_6 is an exponent that varies with the type of crystal structure. In the hard-sphere model, formula_6 would be 1, giving formula_8. In the soft-sphere model, formula_6 has a value between 1 and 2. For example, for crystals of group 1 halides with the sodium chloride structure, a value of 1.6667 gives good agreement with experiment. Some soft-sphere ionic radii are in the table. These radii are larger than the crystal radii given above (Li, 90 pm; Cl, 167 pm). Inter-ionic separations calculated
