Fencing using angle posts and pipe (dia) posts is widely used for boundary protection, security fencing, and agricultural enclosures. The design involves steel angle posts and round pipe posts with barbed wire, chain link mesh, or welded mesh attached securely.

1. Components of Fencing with Angle Post & Pipe Post

ComponentDescription
Angle PostVertical post made of MS/Hot Dip Galvanized Steel Angle (ISA 50x50x6 mm or 65x65x6 mm).
Pipe (Dia) PostVertical or horizontal post made of GI/Steel Pipe (40 mm – 100 mm diameter).
Fencing MaterialBarbed wire, Chain Link Mesh, Welded Wire Mesh, or Razor Wire.
Stiffener BracingAdditional angle or pipe bracing at corners and gates for stability.
Base Plate (If Required)Plate (6 mm thick) at bottom for fixing posts into concrete or steel surfaces.
Concrete FoundationM15/M20 concrete (250 mm × 250 mm × 600 mm deep) for embedding posts.

2. Types of Fencing Arrangements

a. Angle Post with Barbed Wire Fencing

✔ Posts: ISA 50x50x6 mm or ISA 65x65x6 mm.
✔ Spacing: 2.5 m – 3.0 m center to center.
✔ Barbed Wire: GI 12 SWG (4-5 strands) with Tensioning Wire.
✔ Fixing: Barbed wire tied using GI binding wire & U-clamps.
✔ Support: Angle bracing at every fifth post & corners.

b. Pipe (Dia) Post with Chain Link Fencing

✔ Posts: GI Pipe (50 mm – 100 mm dia, 3 mm thick).
✔ Spacing: 2.5 m – 3.0 m center to center.
✔ Mesh: Chain Link Mesh (GI or PVC Coated, 3 mm – 4 mm thick, 50×50 mm opening).
✔ Fixing: Clamped with U-bolts, Turnbuckles & Binding Wire.
✔ Bracing: Horizontal pipe (40 mm dia) at top & bottom for support.

c. Hybrid Fencing (Angle & Pipe Post Combined)

✔ Main posts: GI Pipe (100 mm dia) for main posts (entry, corners, & every 10 m).
✔ Intermediate Posts: ISA 50x50x6 mm for intermediate positions.
✔ Fencing: Combination of barbed wire + welded mesh.
✔ Bracing: Diagonal & horizontal pipe braces for better load resistance.

5. Spacing & Bracing Requirements

  • Post Spacing: 2.5 m – 3.0 m
  • Corner Posts: Pipe (Dia) Posts (100 mm dia) with extra bracing.
  • Tension Wire: 3 mm – 5 mm steel tensioning wire at every 500 mm height.
  • Gates & Openings: GI Pipe Frame (50 mm – 75 mm dia) with MS Plate Hinges.

6. Installation Procedure

✔ Marking & Alignment – Set post locations at equal spacing.
✔ Excavation & Concrete Foundation – Dig 600 mm deep holes, fix posts with M15/M20 concrete.
✔ Post Installation – Angle/pipe posts aligned vertically using plumb bob & spirit level.
✔ Bracing Fixing – Corner and gate posts reinforced with diagonal braces.
✔ Fencing Material Fixing – Barbed wire or chain link attached using GI binding wire/U-clamps.
✔ Tensioning & Finishing – Barbed wire tensioned using turnbuckles for firm hold.
✔ Gate Installation – Swing/Sliding gates with GI Frame & Locking Mechanism.

7. Advantages of Angle & Pipe Post Fencing

✔ Cost-Effective – Uses locally available materials.
✔ High Strength & Durability – Angle & pipe posts resist wind & impact loads.
✔ Customizable – Can be adapted to different terrains & heights.
✔ Low Maintenance – GI-coated posts & wires resist rust & weathering.
✔ Security Enhancement – Can be topped with razor wire or electric fencing.

8. Conclusion

Fencing using angle posts & pipe (dia) posts provides a strong, cost-effective, and durable boundary solution for various applications. Proper post spacing, bracing, and fixing techniques ensure long-term performance and security.
