QuestionShould two (2) sets of 2ft x 2ft brick columns be built the same height, even if the driveway entrances are at different heights? 2 columns for entrance of semicircle driveway; 2 columns for exiting?Community AnswerYes, they should be the same size, even if you need to adjust the topography a bit. One set being shorter than the other would be unappealing to the eye.

QuestionI was given some brick pillars for my cement driveway. The pillars are hollow and I placed them on the cement driveway where I wanted them. They are about 300 pounds each, how can I stop them from tipping over?Community AnswerDrill a few holes in your driveway all the way through it below the pillars, have some rebar cut that will tap into those holes and extend into the pillars about 2 feet (60 cm), then simply fill both pillars full of concrete.
