Fence post of a plastic pipe for many years

Independently make fence poles can be via sewer pipes. Fence posts are robust, their service life - for centuries. Such columns are suitable for any soil.

Get the most reliable guard and do not spend a lot of money - a good offer. Today will tell how to make fence posts for centuries.

To use the column pipe (pipe wall thickness of 3 mm.). Metal pipe length three and a half meters, 50x50.

In the lower part of the tube must be made of any size hole grinder. When filling the pipe cement hardens, and a pillar will be very strong, to remove it would be virtually impossible.

Making a hole in the ground to a depth of 1, 5 meters, for PVC pipe diameter 11 - 16 cm. It is necessary that a hole in the ground was not much more than a plastic pipe. A plastic pipe must be lowered into the ground by 40-60 cm. The height of the plastic pipe above ground may be from 40-70 cm. Cut the tube into equal pieces and place in the excavated pit. In the center of each column, insert the metal tube.

To fill using the following proportions of concrete mix (sand - 3 hours, cement -. Part 1, macadam - 4 parts).

Pull the string to align the poles with each other. This should be done from the top.

Fill holes outside the plastic pipe (on the bottom) and the inside. The remaining space outside PVC pipe fall asleep with a mixture of sand and gravel.

The inner space of the metal tube is filled in the same cement mortar. To do this, take an ordinary plastic bottle (preferably 5 L), cut off the neck and use it to fill. Ideal pole for the fence is ready!

Columns must stand upright. We are waiting for concrete pour, and then fasten the joists and decking.

Not to buy for each column of a plastic tube, can be saved in this way. It needs only one pipe. It needs to be cut along with 2 sides, so that the two halves can be easily removed after casting. It turns collapsible tube.

Some thrifty builders recommend to abandon the profile and only use pipes with fittings. 3-4 rebar in one post is enough.

To PVC pipes are not broken up, they need to connect with tape or straps, buckles. See about concrete substitute for fence posts.
