Low cost fencing for a pre-school

Abstract

This is an engineering study requested by the New World Foundation. A team from Engineers without Borders, a student agency at UCT, looked at designing and building a low cost fence for a playground at their pre-school in Lavender Hill. The objective was to provide affordable fencing that would overcome the challenges of theft that the community faces. The conditions for the material was that it should not have fuel usage value such as wood, no scrap material value and it should not block visibility.
