Columns can be nested in more complex layouts. To achieve that, just nest elements with the ui-g-* style classes:
<div class="ui-g">
<div class="ui-g-8 ui-g-nopad">
<div class="ui-g-6">6</div>
<div class="ui-g-6">6</div>
<div class="ui-g-12">12</div>
</div>
<div class="ui-g-4">4</div>
</div>
With this structure, columns with different content will not have equal height. There is a more robust solution to force equal height for columns with different content. Just wrap the internal div elements inside another div with the ui-g style class or even simpler, assign ui-g to the column having nested columns:
<div class="ui-g">
<div class="ui-g ui-g-8 ui-g-nopad">
<div class="ui-g-6">6<br/>6<br/>6<br/>6<br/>6<br/>6<br/></div>
<div class=...
