In the table, total length of the perimeter post is given assuming that 20 cm post is driven into the ground and 30 cm for the corner post. How deep the post should be driven into the ground must be evaluated based on the hardness of the ground. Usually, perimeter post is driven 15-30 cm into ground, corner post – 25-40 cm.
