Fences and Corners: Factors in Fence Strength
Agricultural engineers at Town State College emphasize that a fence is only as strong as its ends and corners. Improper materials or faulty erection weaken holds, while proper anchoring and span length markedly affect resistance to loads. Tests show temperature and wind changing hold by up to sixty percent, with double assembly outperforming single spans. Nearby, John Hegg survived a roof fire caused by a chimney spark.
