Stupovi su jedan od najstarijih nosivih elemenata. Koriste se u svrhu prijenosa tereta konstrukcije s na temelj, a mogu imati i dekorativnu ulogu. Kroz povijest su se izrađivali od: drveta, kamena, a u moderno doba su većinom izgrađeni od armiranog betona. Tehnologija građenja armiranobetonskih stupova je propisana radi osiguranja kvalitete i racionalnog upravljanja materijalima. Osnovni cilj rada je opisati armiračke i tesarske radove, vrste oplata, vrste stupova, te same elemente stupa, kao i alate koji se koriste u procesu izrade armiranobetonskih stupova. U radu je definiran redoslijed izvođenja radnih operacija kao i potreban alat i pribor za te operacije.

Construction columns are one of the oldest load bearing elements. They are used for load transfer from the construct to the basin and also have a decorative purpose. Throughout the history, columns were made of wood, stone, and reinforced concrete in modern days. Reinforced column building technology is regulated for safety and more rational material management. This research paper main goal is to describe reinforcement and carpentry work, shuttering types, column types, and column elements themselves, as well the tools used in the process of making the reinforced column. The order in which the operations are performed and tools and equipment required for these operations are presented as well.
