10、 recom-mended for top of the fence installations. Single 45 barb armswith a single strand of barbed wire or tension wire located inthe outer position of the arm will support coils deployed at thetop of the fence. Barb arms are positioned so that arms are outof reach from the approach side. “V” arms
11、are not recom-mended for security applications where climbing is a threat orwhere only one row of barbed tape is specified. Two rows ofbarbed tape are recommended where “V” arms are specified.See Fig. 1.6.2.2.1 DeploymentStretch the coils out and allow themto rotate (spiral) naturally around their c
12、entral axis. Allowingthe coil to rotate will ensure that there is no mechanical stresswithin the obstacle before tying. Locate the coil loops uni-formly at the specified coil spacing. The coil spacing ispredetermined by one or more permanently attached cablesrunning the entire length of the roll. Th
13、e number of cablesdepends largely on the diameter and application. Coil loopspacing for non-reinforced products are generally 12.0 inches.See Fig. 2.6.2.2.2 Tie PointsBefore making the final attachment tothe fence, inspect the coils for tangles and proper coil spacing.Attach the first ties to the si

Maintain a uniform diameter by aligning theremaining barb clusters around the perimeter of the coil.Complete the splice by tying the end turns of the leading
25、 andtrailing rolls together. Place additional ties where the coilswould have been spot welded if manufactured into onecontinuous roll. Additional ties may be required to strengthenor improve on the appearance of the splice.NOTE 2It is important that larger diameter coils with two or morecables have
26、at least one cable continue uninterrupted through the entirerun. This prevents diameter distortion at the splice.6.2.6 Ground AnchorsCoils deployed on the ground shallbe anchored as required, depending on the application andsecurity threat.
