a square block at the base of a pilaster; a block of wood placed at the bottom of side door casing to terminate the casing as well as the base; since the door casings and bases are moulded, “plinth blocks” offer a sturdier member and a better appearance; “plinth blocks” are thicker and wider than the abutting members; also base block, foot block or pilaster base.
