ASTM F 3342:2019

1.1 This guide covers a variety of materials and methods used in the construction of temporary fences. 1.2 Temporary fences are physical barriers used to define and designate the boundary of construction sites. 1.3 Temporary fences are intended to be installed before any construction activity starting and removed at the end of the construction phase. The duration of service can vary; consideration should be given to the length of time the temporary fence will be in use. 1.4 When determining and specifying materials and installation methods, investigate contract specifications, contract documents, site plan fence location, and, possibly, local codes. Before installation, review and inspect existing site conditions. In some cases, a permanent fence installation should be used as temporary fencing. 1.5 Units- The values stated in inch-pound units are to be regarded as standard.
