Use of T-bar fence posts is not uncommon in stream rehabilitation projects. They have been very useful and are economical. However, they can become a hazard when their application hampers their visibility, such as in low to the ground applications. In these situations the T- Bar can become a tripping hazard or worse cause injuries ranging from cuts, bruses or impailment to humans and wildlife co-habitating in the vicinity. Equipment and recreational vehicles can also be subjected to damage. Solution: use of a buried
anchor would mitigate any above ground protrusions. Products available
are the Soil Spike. |
