Fence
A fence is a structure that encloses an area, typically outdoors, and is usually constructed from posts that are connected by boards, wire, rails or net (textile), netting. A fence differs from a wall in not having a solid foundation along its whole length. Alternatives to fencing include a ditch (fortification), ditch (sometimes filled with water, forming a moat). Types By function * Agricultural fencing, to keep livestock in and/or predators out * Blast fence, a safety device that redirects the high energy exhaust from a jet engine * Sound barrier or acoustic fencing, to reduce noise pollution * Crowd control barrier * Privacy fencing, to provide privacy and security * Temporary fencing, to provide safety, security, and to direct movement; wherever temporary access control is required, especially on building and construction sites * Perimeter fencing, to prevent trespassing or theft and/or to keep children and pets from wandering away. * Decorative fencing, to enhan ...

Steel Fence Post
A steel fence post, also called (depending on design or country) a T-post, a Y-post, or variants on star post, is a type of fence post or picket. They are made of steel and are sometimes manufactured using durable rail steel. They can be used to support various types of safe t post brackets, barbed or smooth wire, or wire mesh. The end view of the post creates an obvious T, Y, or other shape. The posts are driven into the ground with a manual or pneumatic post pounder. All along the post, along the spine, there are studs or nubs that prevent the steel brackets, barbed wire, smooth wire or mesh from sliding up or down the post. They are generally designated as 1.01, 1.25 or 1.33, and 1.5 (for high-fence ranches), referring to the weight in pounds per lineal foot. They are commonly painted with a white tip on top; white improves the visibility of the fence line. When driving the post with a post pounder the white top paint is a visual means to ensure the user doesn’t raise ...

Tumblewheel
An electric fence is a barrier that uses electric shocks to deter humans and other animals from crossing a boundary. Most electric fences are used for agricultural purposes and other non-human animal control. They may also be used to protect high-security areas such as military installations or prisons, where potentially lethal voltages may be applied. Virtual electric fences for livestock using Global Positioning System, GPS technology have also been developed. Design and function Electric fences are designed to shock animals or humans if they attempt to cross the boundary. A component called a power energiser converts power into a brief high voltage pulse. One terminal of the power energiser releases an Electricity, electrical pulse along a connected bare wire about once per second. Another terminal is connected to a metal rod implanted in the earth, called a ground (electricity), ground or earth rod. An animal touching both the wire and the earth during a pulse will complet ...
