The problem here is that when you say "6 acres", that only tells the enclosed

area. It doesn't tell the shape or dimensions. The perimeter (length of the fence

around it) can be many different lengths, for different shapes and dimensions.

-- The shortest possible fence is 1,812.3 feet, if the 6 acres is enclosed by a circle

with a 576.9-ft diameter.

-- The shortest possible fence for a field with straight sides is 2,044.9 feet,

if the 6-acres is enclosed by a square with 511.2-ft sides.

-- If the field isn't square, there are an infinite number of rectangles, with different

dimensions, that all enclose 6 acres. The longer and skinnier the rectangle is, the

more fence it takes to enclose it.

Square, 511.2-ft x 511.2-ft.

Area = 6 acres.

Fence = 2,044.9 ft.

Rectangle, 605-ft x 432-ft.

Area = 6 acres.

Fence = 2,074 ft.

Rectangle, 1,815-ft x 144-ft.

Area = 6 acres.

Fence = 3,918 ft.

Rectangle, 3,630-ft x 72-ft.

Area = 6 acres.

Fence = 7,404 ft.

Rectangle, 29,040-ft x 9-ft.

Area = 6 acres.

Fence = 58,098 ft.

How many rolls to do a five strand barbwire for 180 acres?

Well, first you need to know the length of barbed wire in a roll. Then you need to know the perimeter of the fence (in feet or metres) you are going to build around that 180 acres. Then, calculate it this way: (length of barbed wire in one roll) x (perimeter of fence of 180 acres) = (total length of wire needed for "n" ft. (or m) of fence perimeter of one strand) (total length of wire needed for "n" ft.(or m) fence perimeter of one strand) x 5 = (Grand total length of wire needed to fence 180 acres) (Grand total length of wire needed to fence 180 acres) / (length of barbed wire in one roll) = (# of rolls needed for a five-strand barbed wire fence for 180 acres)


To fence 80 acres how many t-post and wire?

80 acres is 880 x 440 feet. Depends on how many cattle and how rough they are on your post settings. Most people around here in Oklahoma put their t-posts roughly 16' apart. This will take 164 posts. A roll of barbed wire will usually run a quarter of a mile of fence. So on a typical 5 wire fence it will take 30 rolls of barbed wire.

How many dozen dinner rolls are needed to serve 150 people one roll each?

1 dozen rolls = 12 rolls Let x = the number of rolls needed. (12 rolls)(1 person / roll)x = 150 people 12x = 150 x = 12.5 However, if you can only buy dozens in whole numbers (and you can't buy half a dozen, for example), you should round up. So you would need 13 dozen dinner rolls.


How To Install A Chain Link Fence?

If you have animals or children and are looking for a great, inexpensive way to keep them safe and protected while in your yard, you should consider installing an aluminum fence. Aluminum fences are a cheap, fast and easy way to keep the things you want in your yard and the things you do not want out. Aluminum fences come in panels when you purchase them and can be ordered from any Home Improvement store like Home Depot or Lowes. First you need to take an accurate measurement of the area you want to fence. The home improvement store will use your measurements to order the appropriate amount of fencing panels, posts, and fence post caps for your yard. Once the fencing material is delivered you will want to lay out the plan for your fenced area. The best way to mark your borders is to use landscape paint. String can also be used but can be tampered with. Place your post cap onto your post and secure it with a rubber mallet. If you have already marked your post holes you are ready dig them out and begin placing the posts inside. Be sure to use a quick dry cement so you can be sure your posts will stay in place. After you install your gate in the spot you would like it to be, make sure it works the way you want it to. Finally you can install the rest of your panels around the perimeter you have outlined. If you did not purchase fence panels that came pre then you will half to buy a roll of chain link fabric when you buy your posts and post caps. Using chain link fabric rolls do add additional time to your job but will also work for your fence. After you set your posts, you will need to apply the top rail of your fence between the posts and then unroll the chain link fabric. Slide a tension bar into the fabric, lift the fencing up to the fence, and attach the fencing to your posts. Make sure to cut away any excess chain link fabric and adjust all of your tension bars.

What is the best weed killer for fence rolls?

Diluted salt or vinegar sprays, landscape fabric, mulch, pavement, weed-eaters and weighted-down plastic sheeting count among the best weed killers for fence rolls. Mulch may be most effective as inorganic substances, such as decorative pebbles. Equipment such as hand-held pruners, rakes and weed-eaters tend to control grassy growth.
