Presentational conventions
The provisions of this standard are presented in roman (i.e. upright)
type. Its requirements are expressed in sentences in which the principal
auxiliary verb is “shall”.
Commentary, explanation and general informative material is
presented in smaller italic type, and does not constitute a
normative element.
Requirements in this standard are drafted in accordance with
The BSI guide to standardization – Section 2: Rules for the
structure, drafting and presentation of British Standards,
subclause 11.3.1, which states, “Requirements should be expressed
using wording such as: ‘When tested as described in Annex A, the
product shall ...’”. This means that only those products that are capable
of passing the specified test will be deemed to conform to this standard.

1 Scope
This part of BS 1722 specifies requirements for the construction and
installation of general pattern and dropper pattern strained wire fences
and rectangular wire mesh fences, including mild steel or high tensile
woven wire fencing, welded mesh fencing, hexagonal wire netting
fences of the general pattern, and spring steel wire pattern fences where
the mesh is fixed onto spring steel line wires.
This standard includes requirements for protective treatments.
However, maintenance requirements of the fence after installation are
outside the scope of this standard.
NOTE Figure 1 illustrates the general characteristics of strained wire
fences. It is not intended to illustrate any particular requirements of this
standard but provides guidance as to the general layout of a typical fence,
and on the terminology associated with this form of fencing.

attached to the line wires by wire ties, netting rings (see 8.5.4) or hog
rings (see 8.5.5) spaced approximately 450 mm apart. The netting shall
be secured to each post at the top, middle and bottom by the means
specified in 9.3.2.3.
NOTE The method used to attach hog rings should be such as to avoid
damage being caused to the ring or its zinc coating, for instance as a
result of being closed up too much.
The top edge of the netting for rabbit fencing shall be not less
than 0.75 m above ground level. The bottom of a rabbit fence shall
either be buried 150 mm and turned out towards the rabbit harbourage

Posts and struts shall conform to 5.2.1.
11.2.3 Struts
Struts shall be fitted to all straining posts in the direction of each line of
fencing and to all turning posts where the internal angle included by the
line wire is less than 110°, i.e. the change in direction of the wire is
greater than 70°.
NOTE In the case of turning posts, struts can either be fixed in the
manner specified for straining posts or be arranged so that a single strut
bisects the internal angle of the wire (see Figure 2). The choice of method
is determined by the need for local access. In addition, struts projecting
from the line of a fence can create a hazard to stock.

At the bottom end of the strut a thrust plate shall be driven into the
ground, nailed to the strut with 125 mm × 5 mm nails, and secured to
the base of the post by means of a retaining loop of spring steel wire
[see Figure 3a)], fixed at one end with staples into the post and
terminated at the other, either with a wire connector, or with staples
into the post.
