We were setting fence posts in concrete. This is a typical way to install a fence but not the only way. The fence post cement we used was Quikrete post cement. It sets up in 20-40 minutes and is strong enough for fence installation after curing for 4 hours.
To begin, we strung a line from one corner fence post or stake to another corner fence post or stake. That provided a straight measuring line with which to align all the middle fence posts. Our fence post spacing was typically 8 feet from post to post. The fence post hole depth was 30 inches of more with 4-6 inches of gravel at the bottom of the holes.
How much concrete per fence post varied from hole to hole. It averaged 1-2 50 pound bags.
To measure how much concrete for a post hole, you need use the width and the depth of the hole less the volume of the actual post. Use the formula for the volume of a cylinder.
That is about it! You should have a good idea how to put in a fence post. So go do it!
