Demarcation | Lead

PURPOSE/SUMMARY

Wanna build up the city? Desire to shape our magical town? Want to work in the dust? We need someone to guide our team that is pounding rebar, placing signs, and placing red-white tape and orange safety mesh all over the site. Do think you can help demarcate our city?

Fun part: driving around site, work with our electric hammer, making the city look like a fortress.

One week before the event, on the Monday we start with the teams. taking the signs out of the container. Signs will be organized by use.

During that one week before the event, the signs team makes the signs that are needed for Nowhere, the demarcation team helps the signs team with placing them and at some times with assisting where needed when they must wait.

Then a generator, electric rebar pounder, are used to place rebar. Rebar placement happens at the edges of site perimeter, barranca, gate, free camping etc.

After placing the rebar which functions as posts, red-white tape will be attached to the rebars. Red-white tape is also called idiot tape. You will find out on site why it’s called like that 😉

Alternatively, orange mesh is used to demarcate placed where no access is permitted.
