Re: Building a front bricked boundry fence. 7May 15, 2009 2:31 pm Pat the draftie rallliart888 I spoken to my local council (City of Wanneroo) and requested for an application form and specifications. There is one thing I am not clear about is what is the max or min width of the wall between the piers/pillars? On the specification is says that the piers has to be centered at 2700mm in between. My two cents worth: The pier spacings are not a council regulation. The pier spacing is determined by a structural engineer, who calculates this based on the wall height and the wall lenghts. 2700mm might be a maximum spacing, there is no reason why you could space them closer togeather to get a even number of piers along your boundary.
