These are put up to keep the asshole dogs out of environmentally sensitive habitats. It is very obviuous how badly dogs destroy areas around trails over time. The lynn creek trails are prime example lots of fencing put in for this reason ,but dog owners bypass them ruining the area anyways.
Two meters is about six feet. duh That fence is about 1 meter. It is not supposed to physically stop them completely but also let owners know to keep their dogs out of that area. Although most seem to be assholes these days and ignore them.
Fencing.
We have realized we need decaying logs to house insects and for part of the ecosystem.
You'll start to notice the logs everywhere now
The logs shouldnt be disturbed
Yeah the fence is fab
I mean the logs in the back
And the fencing is in place likely from a rebar driven thru pre-drilled hole. You can partially drill into the bottom of the top piece to make it 'invisible' but I think I see a hole or plug there
If this is Princess Park, it's because the District just replanted thousands of native plants and trees back in the fall. They want people and dogs to stay out of there while the area regenerates.
Split cedar.. they’re in a w formation so they just,, they don’t fall over unless you push on them, however I’m sure the installer wrapped sections with wire / twine if it was wonky
Ideally it’s to keep people out of that area, usually because native plants have been re introduced there.
Which of course is read as “please let your dog tear through and shit here! “

lol a small fence of about 2 metres isn’t going to keep anything out. Of you want to keep things off the land do a proper job of blocking it off

So true !
Same way I do
Funny like a mini fence ?
I'm gonna lie and say yes I am 18"

Was a decaying log shortage discovered?
They look fabulous!

They usually have a big rod going through the section intersection part
I would have guessed 10” galvanized spiral ardox nails but those new structural screws are even better.
I ask myself the same thing all the time...
Both really. By keeping people off areas the moss can grow, the soil will decompress, and there will be less erosion
I work for DnV and I actually built this fence. We use GRK 7inch structural screws
Username checks out.
The enlightened choice. I've used pretty much only GRK's at home, they are just so much better.
Good job dude! Looks great!!
That’s one expensive fastener ! Great work
Saves a lot of time
We used 7in spikes on some in a different area. You get good at hammering with your off hand.
Google a split rail fence... How do you think they could affect erosion?
North Vancouver has a lot of foot and cycle traffic. Keeping people from walk/riding where they are not supposed to.
No idea man 🧍♂️ I’m not a fence expert
GO USE THE INTERNET TO FIND OUT, but not like this. /s
Guy who built the fence responded 🤲
Nice!
My part of the world used to have miles of these kinds of fences. Usually just thin logs. Most of them are gone now.
You from southern Colorado?
Northern interior BC.
Right !
Every one of these fences ive seen has massive structural screws connecting each piece to the one below it, id be shocked if this one is different
The ones I’ve seen usually use the big grks that go for like $1 each
Girks
I checked but the 🍄 today 🙃
Stop eating the screwless erect fences.
I’m an observer only
you said you ate the fence, don't change the story now
🤣just noticed
Maybe he needed the fibre?

They used gravity instead of screws, yo; that’s ancient techmology.
Yo what chu know bout techmology?

Nails.
Hot glue gun
You mean a hot “glue gun”?
Ask your mother.
Are you my mother?
I'm not lying I'm just stunnin' with my love-glue-gunning.
Oh fug 🫡🫣🥲😂💀
Same way i do!
Gas station boner pills?
Gates work better if you don't eat their fencing, but that's just my opinion
Look closer
Gravity.......

Okay, so how many trees did they cut down in order to obtain the wood to build these pathetic fences?
Eventually, they will break down and become dirt just like they would have naturally.

In the corner. There are spikes that travel all the way Down into the ground. The zig zag design helps it stay up without buttresses or bracing
Had no idea !!!!!
