If you are referring to Quoins, i use solid extrusions and copy them up the corners. they are not wall hosted so they can 'float' if you don't double check the alignments from both viewing angles. Frieze boards i use solid sweeps and band boards i use wall sweeps similar to corner boards. Keys are face hosted components. see attached for a variety of these.

Probably the best way would be to make a column with the Quoins that you can place at any corner. In this example every bump out at the corners is a column with the materials, sweep and everything already included int he column family. If the attached family doesn't work, send me an email addy and I'll send you the column .rfa for you to play with. Example: http://gibsonhouse.dyndns.org/famfoto/main.php?g2_view=core%3ADownloadItem&g2_itemId=350

You fell victim to one of the classic blunders. The most famous is never get involved in a land war in asia, but only slightly less well known is this! Never go in against a Sicilian when death is on the line!
