Rd,  The contractor refuses to accept culpability and has even stated to charge 5K THB to make it round.  We've explored so many options with no help from the contractor . So now we're going with the concept that a university once used to lay down the pathways between campus buildings.  They delayed laying down the pathways and waited for a couple of months to see where the students wore our paths on the lawns.  Then they built the pathways there.  I believe that no one really understands what if any kind of impact this pillar has. And it seems, in true Thai fashion, that I am the only one who cares.  But I will share the eventual result  after the in-laws have moved in.  Best and Thanks, Moon

I agree. Wait till the house is completed and see what is needed. You can always find a chang to make the post round or even add another one.
