1.5 POST-IN-GROUND SYSTEM 1.5.1 What is a Post-in-Ground anchoring system? As the term indicates, Post-in Ground, means that the vertical posts for a pergola are inserted deep into concrete footings and anchored in that way. The depth of the footing and the length of the post required to be embedded into the footing is determined by the maximum depth of the frost line for a particular area. - Page 7 1.5.2 Study the posts layout requrements. First, study the posts layout requirements. Spend some time planning, yourself, so you are fully familiar with the final size you desire for your poergola.Determine the exact location for each pergola post based on your pergola size. We have designed our pergola systems to eliminate the need to cut any 6x6 post or header members.

Anyone who plans to dig should call 811 or go to their state 811 center's website before digging to request that the approximate location of buried utilities be marked with paint or flags so that you don't unintentionally dig into an underground utility line.
