Note: Refers to architectural orders where columns, pilasters, or piers extend over two or more stories. It has roots in Roman architecture, where one arch could span more than two sections of an elevation, but it was fully developed in the Renaissance and beyond. |

Chinese (traditional) ..... 指由立柱、半露柱或墩柱延伸為兩層或更高層建築的建築柱式。源起於羅馬建築,其拱券可橫跨建築物兩樓層以上,然直至文藝復興時代方始發展完備。 |
Dutch ..... Wordt gebruikt voor architectonische orde waarbij de zuilen, pilasters of pijlers zich uitstrekken over twee verdiepingen. |
Portuguese ..... Refere-se a ordens arquitetônicas em que colunas, pilastras ou pilares se estendem por dois ou mais andares. Tem raízes na arquitetura romana, onde um arco poderia abranger mais de duas seções de uma elevação, mas foi totalmente desenvolvido na Renascença e depois. |
