The description of the rod is given in the drawing. The ratio will be (1: 1.5: 3) stone casting, with 100% Sylhet sand. 1. The column kicker comes first in the case of columns. Adjust the column placement with the gridline yarn and insert the kicker. The kicker's mold must be flawless and tight. If possible, insert a ring on the column inside the kicker section.
