A pedestal base is a type of support structure used to elevate an object. It is composed of three parts: a SOCLE (5 letters), a DADO (4 letters), and a PLINTH (6 letters). The SOCLE is the bottom part of the pedestal, which provides the foundation for the other two components. The DADO is the middle section, which is usually decorated with carvings or other designs. The PLINTH is the top part of the pedestal, which is often the most ornate and serves as the platform for the object being supported.
