What is the probability of that load occurring over the life of your fence?
What is the result after failure of your structure?
If the maximum load you "think" will the fence is exceeded by ??? percent (15%, 25%, 35%, 100%, or whatever) what will be the worst possible result when the fence fails? (Hint: If you're protecting a tomato vine from squirrels and feral pigs, there will only be a low impact when a tornado or hurricane wipes out the fence. If your anticipating grade school or pre-school kids running into an expressway when the fence tips down an embankment overlooking a highway, that would be a "high impact" event.)
Design the thing, don't just read a bureacrat's rules.
