Fences constructed from cleft sweet chestnut supported by wires between sweet chestnut or concrete posts.

This Part of BS 1722 specifies requirements for cleft chestnut pale fences.

This standard specifies lengths of posts and struts, and foundation details for use in normal ground and does not cover the situations where special conditions exist, e.g. ground that is softer or firmer than usual, which warrant a change in normal lengths (see foreword).

This standard is divided into sections that specify separate requirements for the material components for fences (see section 2) and the erection of the fences (see section 3).

NOTE The titles of the publications referred to in this standard are listed on the inside back cover.
