Setting fence posts into waterlogged ground
In article , Frank Erskine
writes Rather than just plonking the posts into their holes and pouring concrete around them, you should place a bit of slate or other impervious material at the bottom of the hole, so that the post is reasonably encapsulated from the soil. How about putting the bottom of the post in a plastic bag? Something like a rubble sack, and taping it up, before pouring the concrete around it? In addition to engine oil/creosote? -- (\__/) (='.'=) This is Bunny. Copy and paste Bunny into your (")_(") signature to help him gain world domination. |
