You will need the correct quantity of:
Straining posts - 1 required at ends, corners, changes of direction, either side of gates and at acute variation
in ground levels, plus one at every 50m on flat straight runs. |

"The most important factor in the strength of a strained fence is the straining posts. They take all the load of the strained wires, and the intermediate posts are only there to stiffen the fence, and to hold the wires at the correct height from the ground."

Av samma text får jag intryck av att straining posts är stolpar som stöds av "stödstolpar" (se bilderna).

| Reference: straining post
Reference information: HEj! Jag har själv slagit in några hundra stängselstolpar häruppe i Dalarna (vargskydd). Vi kallar dessa "straining posts" för hörnstolpar. De är förstärkta för att hålla emot dragkraften som tråden utgör. Jag kan skicka en bild på mina eftersom jag tittar på 2 hörnstolpar medan jag skriver detta. Se sista meningen i länken nedan som bara ett exempel.
mvh
