ok - I was just looking for the same thing for the same reason and think I have come up with the answer. Assuming your 5 acres is rectanguar (2 acres accross and 2.5 acres deep) the dimensions should roughly be 416' x 520' (based on an acre being 208' and not an Irish acre which is about 60% larger than a US acre).

I calculated a perimeter of 1,872', and at the cheapest I have found white vinyl Fencing at $4.81 per foot - this works out to be just over $9,000!!! Think I'll start saving now :-(

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)

How many fence post for 11 acres at 10 feet apart?

Specifying the area inside the fence doesn't tell you the shape or the distancearound it (the "perimeter"). Here are the shortest possibilities. It could beanything longer than these.-- The shortest possible perimeter, requiring the least fence, is to enclosethe area inside a circle. For 11 acres, the diameter of the circle has to be781 feet, and the distance around it is 2,453.8 feet ... that's 246 fenceposts, not including whatever you do for a gate.-- If the sides of the lot are straight, then the shortest possible perimeteris a square. For 11 acres, each side of the square has to be 692.2 feet, andthe distance around it is 2,768.8 feet ... that's 277 fence posts plus the gate.If the lot is rectangular and not square, then the longer and skinnier it is,the more fence it'll need, with no limit. For example, the lot could be 33-ftwide and 14,520-ft long. That's 11 acres inside, and 29,106-ft around ...2,911 fence posts plus the gate.

What is the linear dimentions of 40 acres?

You can't tell the linear dimensions from the area. There are an infinite number of shapes that all enclose 40 acres but have different linear dimensions. The smallest possible straight dimensions that can enclose 40 acres occur if the field is square. Each side would be 1,320 feet, and you'd need exactly 1 mile of fence to enclose it. But if some developer owned a rectangular piece of land that was 330-ft wide and 1 mile long, his land would also measure 40 acres, but it would take 2-1/4 miles of fence to enclose it.


What Linear dimensions make 2.5 acres of land so we can put up fence around it?

You can't tell the linear dimensions from the area. There are an infinite number of shapes that all have the same area. Even if you only consider rectangles, there are still an infinite number of rectangles, all with different dimensions, that all have areas of 2.5 acres. The only thing you know for sure from the area is the area. 2.5 acres = 108,900 square ft. The shortest possible length of fence to enclose 2.5 acres occurs when the plot is a square, 330-ft = 1/16th of a mile on a side. For the square, you need 1,320-ft of fence. For 2.5 acres in any rectangular shape: -- Pick one dimension. Call it 'D' in feet. -- The other dimension is (108,900 / D) feet. -- You'll need (2D + 217,800/D) feet of fence to enclose it.
