    The document summarizes the dead load calculations for precast concrete fence posts and chain link fencing. It calculates the self-weight of a 2.5m high 112mm x 112mm concrete post as 0.75264 kN. It then calculates the self-weight of a 2m x 3m chain link mesh panel with 50mm x 50mm openings and 2.032mm diameter wire as 0.058 kN. Adding the weight of 12 SWG line wires and fittings of 0.008 kN, the total dead load is calculated as 0.81864 kN.
