Quality poles - an integral part of your fence
Gorbulev is ready. The next stage of installing your fence is the posts. Posts for the support of your fence can be used metal. To do this, purchase pipes with a diameter of 70-80 mm, with a wall thickness of 3.5 mm. They should be welded plates, which will be horizontally fastened to the wooden girders. By the way, purlins can also be made from a slab, cutting it along.
Wooden posts? Why not!
Wooden poles are also perfect for your fence. For poles it is preferable to choose wood from oak, larch or pine. The diameter of the barrel of the pillars should be at least 20 cm, and the length - 230 cm.
Before you dig them into the ground, you need to work a little with them. First of all, remove the bark. Burn on the fire. A little to lie down. Then cover the column with hot resin or varnish. It is necessary to cover with resin several times, only this will save the part of the pillar that is in the ground from decay.
And only after the pillars are completely dry, you can dig them up, dropping into the ground a resin-treated or varnished part.
Correctly stuck posts are a pledge of strong fences. We came to this stage, how to dig in the pillars. If your fence will stand on a loamy soil, then the pillars can be slaughtered directly into the ground without any additional reinforcements. For this, you only need to drill holes with a drill. Usually take a garden bur, but it is better to take a fishing boat. Insert the pillar, put a flat board on the end and start to beat the sledge hammer on the pole.
If the area that needs to be covered with a fence is located on sand or chernozem, here it is necessary to work on glory. Dig for every pit pit. The pits for the pillars should be digged to a depth of 60 cm, and their width should be twice as large as the diameter of the pillar to be installed. Pour 10 cm of gravel onto the bottom of the pit. All tamper. In the center of the pit, put a pillar( the treated side should be in the ground), fill the gravel along the perimeter.
Do not forget using a plumb line or building level, check whether the post is vertical. Tumble the gravel. Only after that you can proceed to the next stage of fastening the pillar.
So the preparatory work is finished. There remains the final stage of your case. You look with love and pleasure at the installed poles, prepared slab and look forward to the rapid completion of construction.

In order to slab the slab horizontally, a bar of 5x3 cm is fastened to the supporting posts on both sides, then a slab is attached to it by means of screws or nails. Fit to butt is difficult. It is preferable to use for this nails 150, oiled with linseed oil.
Vertical skin is made differently. For vertical sheathing, the slab is sawn along. The sawn croaker is fixed to the girders with the convex side inward. Between the slabs, gaps of 4-5 cm are left. Later they are closed with the remaining slab, which is already fixed by the convex side outwards.
