A column comprising courses of building blocks such as bricks is arranged with the long axis of each block parallel to the axis of the column and filled with a substrate such as concrete with an axial structural member. The column may be produced with the aid of a cage including spaced apart hoops or rings used to position blocks during column construction. The cage includes indenters for offsetting some of the blocks in order to form aesthetically pleasing grooving along the finished column. |
