  You can also define positions of the cross-section at the beginning and end of a column (how the cross-section defined at the column beginning is positioned at the column end):

  Some characteristic positions of cross-sections at the beginning / end of a column
  An arbitrary position of the cross-section determined by specifying values for parameters A and B.

• Column with a round cross-section (tapered section)
  

  You can also define the following positions of the cross-section at the beginning and end of a column (how the cross-section defined at the column beginning is positioned at the column end):

  An arbitrary position of the cross-section determined by specifying a value for parameter A.
