It's the sideways restraint of the soil against the concrete that will stop the whole thing from being blown over and as soil is relatively soft stuff particularly when wet, a large bearing area , meaning 600x 600 hole , is needed in order to achieve the adequate restraint .

I know what Mick is recommending for the roller door but the rest are just fence posts right. And BTW Mick is just referring to the size of the hole cut in the concrete, so you can dig a hole for the post, not the total size of the footing:eek: which would be a lot of concrete
