Hi all we are installing some frameless glass for around the pool and I need to lay some concrete to bolt down my spigots (dyno bolt types, not core drill) to hold my glass panels. I am thinking of going 300mm wide by 400mm deep and it will be 10meters long. What I need to know is, is the depth enough?? Was also thinking of going down 1mtr every 1.5mtrs doing a 100diameter hole to basically stop the whole fence from rolling over.86462just a quick drawing of what it would look like basically. Thanks for your input in advance.

300 by 400 sounds ample. I assume you will set the fence in the middle of the width? The 1m holes sound a bit of an overkill, but it depends on type of soil, fence height, expected wind, etc. Maybe 500 below the strip footing may be enough.

250 to 300 Diameter x 600 deep would be more than enough. Its only a fence, your not building the Taj Mahal.
