Not only does it delineate, but the fence also give a beautiful backdrop to landscaping. This fence by this home in Italy, Texas varies from six to four feet tall. Disclaimer. All of the information given in this booklet is to the best of our knowledge factual and useful. The engineering data given is from practical experience. Any person building these fences is advised to have each particular fence engineered by a professional engineer competent in this type of endeavor. The engineering will of necessity take into account the soil bearing, snow loads, wind loads, seismic values, etc.
Step 1 Design the Fence Layout Where is the property line? Whenever a fence is built, it should be ascertained where the property line is, or at least, exactly where the fence is to be constructed. If the fence is between two property owners it is best to have an agreement on what the fence is to be like, how it should be laid out, and who is to pay for and install it. The laws on fences vary from state to state, so if you don’t get an absolute agreement with your neighbor, it is probably best that you check with an attorney to see what your legal options are. After locating and marking the property lines decide with the neighbors on the best fence layout. This is doubly important if the fence is to be zigzag. During planning remember to design the layout so it does not hinder future plans, remodeling, or expansions. For instance, if there is no exit to the back lot and some day you want to build a swimming pool there, you will find it very difficult to go through the concrete fence. Therefore, a gate would be in order. Fences perform many functions, not the least is to “keep them out and us in.” “Them” can be critters, people, wind, snow drifts. “Us” usually consists of the residents and the pets of the home. An appropriate fence height The property line must be determined, agreements between neighbors must be reached, and a plan decided on before construction can begin. The zigzag fence is superior to the straight line fence. Notice the zigzag fence only requires a fence post every 16 feet, while the straight line fence requires a post hole every 8 feet. 3
