It is our job to make sure you know the difference when helping your customers select the right products for their next project so that you know you are offering the best value for their fencing dollar. Agricultural fencing is made with low carbon, medium tensile or high tensile wire. We recommend using high tensile wire products for a stronger, longer lasting and cost effective alternative to low carbon wire. High Tensile Low Carbon • Made from high carbon steel with • Made from low carbon steel with a a carbon content of .28% maximum carbon content of .10 percent • Will only stretch 1–3% before breaking • Easy to work with and fairly forgiving • Will not sag like low carbon wire stretching and elongation over time • If installed properly, high carbon wire provides a maintenance-free fence requiring no re-stretching • Higher breaking strength means fewer posts, spaced at greater distances FENCE COATINGS Selecting a wire with the proper coating is essential to protecting a fence from harsh environmental elements including humidity, sand, soil chemicals, fertilizer, salt, pollution and acid rain. Commercial Wire Zinc Aluminum • No standard minimum coating • Consists of 95% Zinc and 5% Aluminum • Not recognized by ASTM¹ • Also known as Class 20 • Galvanization will last approximately • Coating lasts 3 times longer than Class 1 3 months–1 year before signs of rust appear 50-Year Fence Class 1 • Consists of 95% Zinc and 5% Aluminum • Most economical protective coating • Also known as Class 40 used on standard fence wire • Extends the life of StaTite50® to twice the life • Considered a basic coating of Class 3 and 7 times longer than Class 1 • Galvanization will last 2-11 years in non-coastal climates 1. ASTM International is a standards monitoring organization used across many industries that develops and publishes Class 3 the technical standards for manufactured products. • Approximately 2.5 times thicker than standard Class 1 • Expected to last 13–30 years before rust appears KNOW YOUR KNOTS Hinge Joint The hinge joint is found on both low carbon and high tensile products. This is the most common knot in agricultural fencing. The knot is formed by wrapping the vertical stay wire pieces around the line wire at each intersection. This design can also absorb animal impact without damage and is the most economical knot choice available. “S” Knot The “S” knot design uses a separate piece of wire that attaches the line wire to the solid stay wire, assuring maximum strength, and prevents the fence from buckling or sagging. This design is smooth to the touch so you won’t have to worry about injuries to your animals. The knot’s strength holds up to even the strongest animal or weather impact while maintaining feibility. Fixed Knot Found on The 50-Year Fence and Solidlock® products, this design is top of the line. he fed knot utilies solid vertical stay wires, which increase the vertical strength of the fence and allow for increased post spacing. The knot is a separate piece of wire tightly wrapped around the line wire and stay wire. Fixed knot fence is very resistant to animal damage. forged Knot he forged knot is similar in appearance to the knot but utilies a much more advanced technology. he solid vertical stay wire and horiontal wires are crimped together before the knot wire is “forged” into place with thousands of pounds of force. This process creates a much stronger knot with no sharp edges that can cause damage to your animals. HOW TO READ DESCrIPTIONS 2096 All fencing product numbers follow industry style standards.

  • Fence Law Meeting Handout
    FARM FENCE ISSUES : November, 2007 Compiled by Tom Stanley, Extension Agent for Farm Business Management Selected Sections of the Code of Virginia pertaining to Division Fences Please take note of the following selected portions of the Code of Virginia related to farm fences. In particular, compare 55-317 with 55-319. These two paragraphs, it could be argued, directly contradict one another. Virginia Code 55-317 indicates non-livestock holding landowners have the right to let their land lie open and are free of fencing obligations. However, VA Cod 55-319 appears to imply that in the case of a pre-existing fence, there is an obligation on both parties, regardless of the presence of livestock, to maintain pre-existing division fences. On the last page of this document, is information from the Division of Legislative Services and their interpretation of 55-317 and 55-319. The Division of Legislative Services is the government office that reviews all proposed changes to the Code and advises the General Assembly on potential conflicts or contradictions in the Code of Virginia. It appears the Division of Legislative Services interprets 55-319 to mean that previous arrangements between neighbors for the sharing of fencing costs must be recorded with the deed in order for the obligation to be conferred on a new owner. CODE OF VIRGINIA TITLE 55. PROPERTY AND CONVEYANCES. CHAPTER 18. TRESPASSES; FENCES. § 55-299.

  • 3A.1 Aesthetics – Land
    3A.1 AESTHETICS – LAND This section contains a program-level evaluation of visual resources. However, impacts to visual resources would be the same under each individual development phase as under the program (entire SPA) analysis. 3A.1.1 A FFECTED ENVIRONMENT VISUAL ASSESSMENT AND VISUAL QUALITY CRITERIA The aesthetic quality of an area is determined through the variety and contrasts of the area’s visual features, the character of those features, and the scope and scale of the scene. The aesthetic quality of an area depends on the relationships between its features and their importance in the overall view. Evaluating scenic resources requires a method that characterizes visual features, assesses their quality in relation to the visual character of the surrounding area, and identifies their importance to the individuals viewing them. This process is derived from established procedures for visual assessment developed by Federal agencies, and is commonly used for a variety of project types. Both natural and created features in a landscape contribute to its visual quality. Landscape characteristics influencing visual quality include geologic, hydrologic, botanical, wildlife, recreation, and urban features. Several sets of criteria have been developed for defining and evaluating visual quality. The criteria developed by the Federal Highway Administration in 1981, which are used in this analysis, include the concepts of vividness, intactness, and unity. According to these criteria, none of these is itself equivalent to visual quality; all three must be considered high to indicate high quality. These terms are defined as follows: ► “Vividness” is the visual power or memorability of landscape components as they combine in striking and distinctive visual patterns.

  • Threshold Determination for Chromated Copper Arsenate and Creosote Oil for Termiticidal Treatment of Gmelina Arborea Wood ABSTR
    © A publication of the School of Agriculture Technology, The Federal University of Technology, Akure, Nigeria. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________ Applied Tropical Agriculture Threshold Determination for Chromated Copper Arsenate and Creosote Oil for Termiticidal Treatment of Gmelina arborea Wood Owoyemi, J.M*. and Olufemi, B. Department of Forestry and Wood Technology, the Federal University of Technology, Akure, P.M.B. 704, Akure, Nigeria. * Corresponding Author: [email protected] ABSTRACT The threshold point of Chromated Copper Arsenate (CCA) and Creosote Oil preservatives for the treatment of Gmelina arborea wood against subterranean termites was investigated. Wood samples from 15 years old Gmelina arborea trees were cold-dipped with CCA at 4%, 3% and 2% concentration levels while Creosote oil was used undiluted as well as at 1:1 and 1:3 Creosote oil - kerosene mixtures. The treated samples and control were exposed to termite attack at the timber grave yard, Federal University of Technology, Akure, Nigeria for 36 months. The result revealed the efficacy of CCA in the protection of Gmelina wood at the three concentration levels for the 36-month period with samples maintaining an ASTM mean visual rating of 10 (sound) at 2, 3 and 4% CCA treatment levels. Creosote Oil provided protection for only 12 months period as it recorded heavy attack and failure at the end of 30 months thereby suggesting a post-treatment schedule every 12 months for the undiluted Creosote oil in order to sustain protection of the wood. It could be concluded that 3% concentration level is the threshold value for CCA wood treatment while creosote oil could only be used undiluted for 12 months, its dilution with solvent reduced its potency.
