You will need the correct quantity of:
Straining posts - 1 required at ends, corners, changes of direction, either side of gates and at acute variation

sidobelastad stolpe; hörn-, bryt-, grind- och ändstolpe
Jag tror inte vi har något kort allm. använt ord/uttryck. Vi tenderar till att använda långa samansatta uttryck såsom:
"hörn-, bryt-, grind- och ändstolpar"
"hörn-, bryt-, grind- och ändstolpar"

Comment: "Went with 'grindstolpar' as this phrase would be a bit too cumbersome in the text. "

Det verkar finnas olika typer av stängselstolpar och "straining posts" verkar bara vara en typ.

"The most important factor in the strength of a strained fence is the straining posts. They take all the load of the strained wires, and the intermediate posts are only there to stiffen the fence, and to hold the wires at the correct height from the ground."

Av samma text får jag intryck av att straining posts är stolpar som stöds av "stödstolpar" (se bilderna).

Reference:
straining post
HEj! Jag har själv slagit in några hundra stängselstolpar häruppe i Dalarna (vargskydd). Vi kallar dessa "straining posts" för hörnstolpar. De är förstärkta för att hålla emot dragkraften som tråden utgör. Jag kan skicka en bild på mina eftersom jag tittar på 2 hörnstolpar medan jag skriver detta. Se sista meningen i länken nedan som bara ett exempel.
