This document outlines specifications for fences and railings to be constructed as part of a DPWH project. It describes requirements for different fence types, including concrete hollow block, precast, and welded wire fences. For welded wire right-of-way fences, it specifies that the wire be hardened and elongated gauge #7, and lists requirements for the wire mesh's breaking point, tensile strength, and elongation factor. It also provides requirements for terminal posts, including that they be square steel tubing or schedule 40 steel pipe.

DPWH Standard Specification for Item 1722 - FENCEAND RAILINGS


••

1722.1 Description

This Item shall consist of furnishing and constructing posts and fences either concrete hollow
block (CHB), precast, cyclone/ welded wire, precast plant box, and railings in accordance with
the details, and at the locations, shown on the Plans, or as required by the Engineer, and in
accordance with this Specification.

1722.2 Material Requirements

1722.2.1 Concrete Hollow Block (CHB) Fence

CHB shall conform to the applicable requirements of Item 1046 - Masonry Works.

1722.2.2 Precast Fence

Precast fence shall conform to the applicable requirements of Item 900 - Reinforced Concrete.

If commercial precast fences are to be used, it shall be indicated in the Plans and shall be
approved and certified by the Engineer.

1722.2.3 Welded Wire Fence

1722.2.3.1 Right-Of-Way Fence

Typhoon style welded wire mesh fence system shall be indicated in the Plans and certified
and approved by the Engineer prior to application.

1. Wire shall be hardened elongated, gauge # 7, stretched diameter.

a. The material breaking point of the welded mesh shall be at least 427 MPa.

b. The tensile strength of the wire mesh shall be at least 489 MPa.

c. The elongation factor of the wire mesh shall be 7 percent.

d. Welding points shall be able to withstand force of at least 5.3 kN.

2. Terminal Posts:

r
a. Square steel tubing shall be fabricated conforming to ASTM A 500 - Standard
Specification for Cold-Formed Welded and Seamless Carbon Steel Structural Tubing in
Rounds and Shapes or ASTM A 501 - Standard Specification for Hot-Formed Welded
and Seamless Carbon Steel Structural Tubing. The square steel tubing can be
substituted with schedule 40 steel pipe only if the fence manufacturer has confirmed
in writing that the tubular member is compatible to installation of the mesh fence
panels.

b. Post Caps: Each post shall have a square cap to seal out moisture. Flat and form
plastic to the shape of the post. Coating to match the fabric.
