Once seen cozy houses in the frame of lacquered glistening fences will not let you sleep at night. You will want to build such an euro-fence on your own site. A simple and affordable installation of the fence will appeal to many. How to install a concrete fence yourself?

What is a "eurobasket"
An alternative fencing for traditional fences made of metal and wood can be safely called eurosboro. What is this design?
Eurosboro is a prefabricated reinforced concrete structure used to protect the site.
Quite frankly, the appearance and contents of the modular fencing was borrowed from the peeped fences that abound in attractive sections of houses in Europe. Safely transformed from "their" panels, the modern eurofire acquired the unique type of fencing that you can build with your own hands without the use of special equipment.
What are the main advantages of fencing? It is unerring to call:
• Insignificant cost
• the ability to replace a segment (panel or pillar) and design
• Simple and affordable installation yourself.
To build a self-takedown, you need to understand its design.
The design of the eurobasket and how to build it
Structurally, the eurofence is assembled from pillars and panels, which are installed between pillars. Schematically, the design of the fence looks like an assembly of a designer, only from powerful and powerful elements.
To install the fence there is no need to prepare a trench and lay the foundation.
With the use of a level, fence posts are placed in the prepared grooves. Then the supporting pillars are poured with concrete, and decorative plates are placed in the guide grooves. After installation, the seams are rubbed and shpaklyuyut.
Small architectural forms or panels, as well as poles, are manufactured in special forms for euro-fences using the vibration method.
The installation and fabrication of the Euros provides a unique opportunity to use the elements of combining. Combining different in structure, color and height of materials allows to vary the arrangement of panels. As an insert, you can use wild stone, forged metal or natural wood.
Kevlarbeton or "granite": choose the material
The technology of producing euro-fence is not worth it, as a fence post, on the spot. Unlike traditional products, universally produced by the method of vibration, the products of Kevlarbeton have an improved range of indicators and capabilities.
Concrete mix kevlarbeton excellent casting quality, which distinguish slabs and panels in terms of watertightness and non-dissipation. Naturally, this means that there are no visible shells and cracks on the fence panels. Euro-fences of Kevlar concrete and "granite" have an attractive glossy surface.
Technology "granite" allows you to create "marble" concrete with a characteristic natural pattern of stone.
Manufacture of panels and poles
concrete panels
Panels for assembling fences are of standard sizes: length up to 2 m, width up to 05 m, height up to 2.5 m, weight up to 100 kg. In appearance, the panels are distinguished by the deaf and openwork. The technological process will consist of:
• in the preparation of a concrete mixture according to a special recipe
• layout of the mixture by forms
• Decking on a wooden pallet
• drying the product.
For the production of concrete euro-fence panels, fiberglass molds are required, framed by an iron frame and a vibrating table. Diesel and oil are required for lubrication of the mold.
The mold vibrating table is equipped with two electric motors asynchronous with installed vibrators.
self-preparation of a mixture of concrete
To prepare a mixture of concrete, a concrete mixer of forced or gravitational type is required. In the concrete mixer lay: a bucket of cement, two buckets of sand, two buckets of rubble and pour three liters of water. To add the viscosity of the mixture, add plasticizer at the rate of 0.5 percent of the total amount of cement added.
The solution is then mixed and the molds are prepared for pouring. By the way, it's not difficult to buy forms for euro-withdrawal. The mold is placed on the vibrating table and the interior is lubricated with a mixture of oil and diesel fuel in equal parts.
blending
The process of laying out the mixture and molding the product must be done with the vibrating table turned on. Concrete is evenly spread out taking into account the stock, so the layer must be higher than the plane of the mold itself. In the process of vibration, the layer of the mixture will decrease, the surplus of concrete in the future must be cut off by a corner of the metal.
In the process of laying the mixture it is necessary to lay the reinforcing bars. As soon as the reinforcing bars are drowned in the mixture, the vibrating table is switched off.
After the process of molding the finished product - a concrete panel, it is formed on a wooden pallet and then dried.
The manufacture of poles for eurofinding is similar.
Euroset installation
The installation of concrete euroself with their own hands begins with the preparation of a pit for the first pillar. Then, establish the first pillar and adjust using the level of its position. The marking is made for the second pit for the pillar and a glass is prepared.
Then the prepared slabs are inserted into the grooves of the first column. The first pillar is exposed on all planes, and the glass is concreted. In the second pit, the second pillar is inserted in the tilted state. In the grooves of the inclined post, insert the panel plate, and the second post is also fixed.
It is recommended to use rubble stones, crushed stone and cement to fix the pillars. Completely typed section of the fence is set vertically and horizontally and the montage of the pillars continues.
To install the swing part of the fence, it is necessary to install two pillars simultaneously with mounting slots in the sides of the fence plane advance.
