Basement pole or lolly/lally column depending on where you're from.

Thnx.

Still can't find such a model in 3D anywhere.

Even with "abutment" or "steel brace"

Just found "shoring prop" ... gives better results with google image search ... yet no 3D to be found.

I'll have to model myself I guess.

... but luckily, it's not difficult to make...
What format do you need?

"Ceiling Jack" (I've used them once when the snow got too heavy!), also "Mine Roof Supprots".  See http://www.chicagojack.com/mechanical.asp (http://www.chicagojack.com/mechanical.asp).

Thnx folks!

I've modeled it this morning.
I always prefer to find it on grabcad or such ... but it was not that much work.

It's for another design-idea that I once saw from a fellow student that never did anything with a (I think) brilliant idea.

Just a small mod to add hooks to it and you have an awesome coatstand that is:
- inexpensive
- rock solid
- fits perfectly in industrial-look design buildings/restaurants/...
