Abstract
A method of fitting a protective barrier on a structure base. The method may include removing a first sidewall from a tire. A line may be cut spanning from an outer diameter of the sidewall to an inner diameter of the sidewall such that the sidewall includes sidewall ends and the sidewall is no longer a continuous loop. The sidewall ends may be bent away from each other to widen a gap between the sidewall ends. The sidewall may be placed around the structure base by moving the sidewall relative to the structure base such that the structure base passes through the gap and into an inner opening of the sidewall.

A method of fitting a protective barrier on a structure, the method comprising:
- (a) removing a first sidewall from a tire;
- (b) cutting a line spanning from an outer diameter of the sidewall to an inner diameter of the sidewall such that the sidewall includes sidewall ends and the sidewall is no longer a continuous loop;
- (c) bending the sidewall ends away from each other to widen a gap between the sidewall ends to form a widened gap;
- (d) placing the sidewall around the structure by moving the sidewall relative to the structure such that the structure passes through the widened gap and into an inner opening of the sidewall;
- and
- (e) returning the sidewall ends toward each other to narrow the widened gap to secure the sidewall about the structure.
