Interesting question.
"Plinth" is not a defined term in solid geometry. A plinth can be the base of a statue or the foundation of a dam.
The base of a statue could be a simple rectangular column, or a more complicated shape. Suppose it is a square column, with each side s and the height h. The area of each side would be hs, and the area of the top is s2. You can't see the bottom, so we won't count it. There are 4 sides, so the total surface area is:
Ap = s2 + 4hs
The related link below shows how to make a drawing of a more complicated plinth. Note: there are four videos to show the whole process!
