Each outer wall has an inner surface (), an outer surface (), a top surface, a thickness, and a plane () defined by the outer surface. Each partial column has an inner surface (), an outer surface (), a top surface (), and a thickness, and defines a corner angle (), such as approximately 90 degrees. The partial columns alternate with the outer walls, and the outer surface of a partial column extends beyond the plane of an adjacent outer wall. The center section and the bottom section are a unitary structure formed of a flexible insulating material, such as an EVA foam.
