drain culvert

[ford347]

I have a client who has used 10" metal drain culverts as column wraps inside his commercial space. I would like to represent those on some presentation drawings and draw the same thing where they occur new, but I don't know where to start. I don't know how I would use the system to accomplish that shape. If it would not be productive to model the exact shape, I could just use a circular extrusion, but then I would need to find a material to apply to it and also have it show up in all views, sections, details etc.

Any suggestions.

Thanks
Josh

That's exactly what I would do!
