Wire ties: For tying fabric to tension wires, use 11 ga. steel hog rings spaced 24" o.c.; for tying fabric to posts, use 9 ga. steel wire spaced 12" o.c.; for tying fabric to rails and braces, use 9 ga. steel wire spaced 24" o.c. These are minimums. Manufacturer's standard procedure may require more ties. L. Bands: Use 14 ga. x 1" wide steel bands spaced 15" o.c. for securing stretcher bars to end and gate posts.

Make welds neat and secure, grind off excess exposed metal. Securely set posts plumb in alignment at proper depth and height, and rigid bracing where needed; install fabric under tension and securely tie to posts, rails and braces. Gates shall move freely without sag. B. Setting posts: Space posts as indicated (10 ft. o.c. max.). Pour and tamp concrete leaving no voids. Check posts for vertical and top alignment and hold in position. Dome top of concrete and trowel smooth to shed water away from post. Align posts in footings as follows: Without Slats or Windscreen: a. Line Posts to 8'-0" high max: 1'-0" diameter, 3'-3" min. embedment. b. End, Corner & Pull Posts to 8'-0" high max: 1'-0" diameter, 4'-3" min. embedment. C. Line Posts 8'-1" to 10'-0" high max: 1'-0" diameter, 3'-9" min. embedment. d.

Where posts occur adjacent to structures or other work where concrete foundations may conflict with post footing, block out to allow post installation or use off -set post. Hold post 4 inches clear from face of structure C. Tension wire: Provide wire at bottom of fence fabric. Install taut, tying to each post with 6 ga. wire. D. Fabric: Leave about 1-1/2" between ground and bottom barbs. Pull fabric taut and tie to 4
