Snow Fence

DESCRIPTION: Snow fencing shall consist of wood slats woven together with five two wire strands of galvanized wire.

MATERIALS: Slats shall be made of no. 1 aspen or spruce measuring (3/8”) three-eight inches thick, one and one-half (1-1/2”) inches wide and forty-eight (48”) inches high. The permission variation in width shall not exceed one-sixteenth (1/16” ) inch and one-quarter (1/4” ) inch in length. Thickness shall be a minimum of three-eights (3/8”) inches thick but shall not exceed 9-sixteenths (9/16”) inches thick. Both ends shall be cut square. The slats shall be painted with good quality of red iron oxide stain unless natural is ordered.

The base metal of the wire shall be of a good commercial quality of steel. The galvanized steel wire shall be not less than thirteen (13) steel wire gauge. The weight of the coating shall not be less than three-tenths (0.3) ounce per square foot of uncoated wire surface. Determined in accordance with AASHO Designation T65 (Class 1). Weight of Coating on Zinc-Coated (Galvanized) Iron on steel Articles. The zinc coating shall adhere to the wire, without flaking and without being removable by rubbing with bare fingers, when the wire is bent completely around a pin of the same diameter as that of the wire.

FABRICATION: The slats shall be spaced two and one-quarter (2-1/4”) inch apart plus or minus ¼”, and there shall be not less than two (2) three hundred and sizty (360) degree twist of the wire in the weave between the slats. The fabric must be tightly woven so that the wire is forced into the wood slats sufficiently to hold them tightly. The strands of wire shall be spaced (10) inches apart and four (4) inches from the ends of the slat. The fence shall be stretched after weaving and before being placed in rolls.

DELIVERY: The fencing shall be furnished in rolls of fifty (50) or one hundred (100) feet in length as order.
