For all y'all who know about such things.
Is there a "standard ratio" of how much pole to bury for a given length ?.
The telephone pole and shed work but I get to many night visitors. local dogs, sniffing around. Am looking to move inside the fenced back yard.
I have a couple of 10' I beams and was wondering if I put 3' in the ground, will that be enough the support 300 lbs in a hammock.
[adding a 100 lb safety factor in there].
EDIT. The plan is to bury, in cement, 3' sections of thick wall pvc, the I beams will then just be put in when I intend to use them and can be removed to mow or clear the view.
