7、Publishing informationThis part of BS 1722 was published by BSI and came into effect on 30 November 2006. It was prepared by Technical Committee B/201, Fences and gates. A list of organizations represented on this committee can be obtained on request to its secretary.SupersessionThis part of BS 1722
8、 supersedes BS 1722-11:2000, which is withdrawn.Relationship with other publicationsBS 1722 is published in parts as follows: Part 1: Specification for chain link fences; Part 2: Specification for strained wire and wire mesh netting fences; Part 4: Specification for cleft chestnut pale fences; Part

12、ry fencing systems2).Information about this documentIt should be noted that no attempt has been made to standardize fences or gates of a purely decorative nature, or those to suit special requirements; nor to specify requirements for “patent” proprietary fencing systems. However, the structure of su
13、ch fences or gates should be in accordance with the applicable clauses of this part of BS 1722.1)Obsolescent.2)Part 18 is in development and will be published as a Draft for Development (DD). BSI 2006 iiiBS 1722-11:2006This standard aims to establish minimum requirements for materials and workmanshi
14、p of the more common types of fence in order to ensure satisfactory service for the purchaser, and to assist manufacturers and installing contractors by eliminating unnecessary minor variations. Choosing a suitable fence is affected by factors such as the intended purpose, desired service life, aest
15、hetic considerations and availability of components. The specifier can match a suitable choice of fence to its intended purpose and also inform those installing the fence of the basic characteristics required.Premature failure of the fence can be avoided by taking care not to damage protective treat
16、ments during installation.Ground conditions might indicate that a variation in the length of a post, or the depth to which it should be set, is desirable. The post setting depths specified in this standard are intended for use in normal ground conditions, but if special conditions exist that warrant
17、 a change in the specification, e.g. the ground is softer or firmer than usual, such a change should be agreed with the specifier.It is generally assumed in this standard that the fence is installed on horizontal. Where it is installed on a gradient special measures may be required.Annex A provides
18、details of the fence requirements and installation site that should be agreed between the fence supplier and purchaser. However, as conditions vary from site to site, Annex A should not be assumed to be exhaustive.Use of this documentIt has been assumed in the drafting of this part of BS 1722 that t
19、he execution of its provision is entrusted to appropriately qualified and experienced people. Before installation commences the Lead Installer should hold a current FISS/CSCS registration card skilled level (blue card) or equivalent and all other operatives should hold the basic fence operative card
20、 (green card) or equivalent.At the time of publication of this British Standard the registration cards are validated by the Joint Fencing Industry Skills Scheme (FISS) and Construction Scheme Skills Certification Scheme (CSCS). FISS/CSCS maintains a national register of fence installers and operativ
21、es. There might be other schemes available.Presentational conventionsThe provisions of this standard are presented in roman (i.e. upright) type. Its requirements are expressed in sentences in which the principal auxiliary verb is “shall”.Commentary, explanation and general informative material is pr
22、esented in smaller italic type, and does not constitute a normative element.Requirements in this standard are drafted in accordance with The BSI guide to standardization Section 2: Rules for the structure, drafting and presentation of British Standards, subclause 11.3.1, which states, “Requirements
23、should be expressed using wording such as: When tested as described in Annex A, the product shall .”. This means that only those products that are capable of passing the specified test will be deemed to conform to this standard.BS 1722-11:2006iv BSI 2006Contractual and legal considerationsThis publi
24、cation does not purport to include all the necessary provisions of a contract. Users are responsible for its correct application.Compliance with a British Standard cannot confer immunity from legal obligations. BSI 2006 1BS 1722-11:20061 ScopeThis part of BS 1722 specifies requirements for the mater
25、ials, design, construction and installation of prefabricated wood panel fences constructed from softwood panels fixed between timber or concrete posts. This standard does not cover fences of a height greater than 2 m above ground level.This standard includes requirements for protective treatments. H
26、owever, maintenance requirements of the fence after installation are outside the scope of this standard.It specifies requirements for the components that make up a fence and the way in which the fence should be constructed. The standard includes requirements for component dimensions, together with t
27、he permissible tolerances on size. These are minimum requirements and it will normally be acceptable to use larger sizes, except if this could adversely affect the fitting of components or if replacement parts are required to match with those already present.NOTE 1 Prefabricated wood panel fences ar
28、e suitable for housing, for dividing boundaries and for visual screens. They are not suitable for fencing which is exposed to animal or personnel loading. They are also not suitable for some very exposed areas such as headlands and high hills liable to abnormally high winds.NOTE 2 Annex A lists item
29、s that should be agreed between the fence supplier and the purchaser.2 Normative referencesThe following normative documents contain provisions which, through reference in this text, constitute provisions of this part of this British Standard.
