Purpose
Nominate livestock, pets, wildlife, security or simple boundary definition.
What the job involves
Rural fencing can involve wire type, post spacing, strain assemblies, gateways, creek crossings, vegetation clearing and long access distances. The right system depends on what it must contain or exclude.
Decisions that shape the scope
Terrain
Changes in grade, wet ground and watercourses affect alignment and access.
Straining and corners
Ends, corners and gates concentrate load and belong in the system specification.
Maintenance access
Consider vegetation, firebreaks and the ability to inspect or repair the line later.
Local planning point
What to check in this market
