This term of independent research is more about how to reuse the offuts of the wood to a function.Continuing from last term , The process of building the fence  begings with the following steps in considerations :

• FINAL DESIGN  OF THE FENCE :

The main idea is to create panels with sticks of 44×44 section and intermidate vertical pieces from the offcuts of the remaining wood proccessed from the previous year at valldaura labs.

Dimensions Of The Fence

• LAYING THE SUPPORTS OF THE PANEL :

The first step is to dig the site for the concrete foundation which are 500mm deep and 300mm width and length.

After this we wrap plastic around the post for a waterproof coat and alig the post before pouring the concrete into holes.
