Abstract
A concrete fencing system uses a pair of end posts to support a pair of rails, which support a plurality of panels. The end posts and rails have rectangular cross-sections. Each end post has a blind hole and a notch, and each rail has a longitudinal slot. One section of the fencing system is constructed by setting a pair of the end posts in the ground. A lower rail is mounted between the lower ends of the end posts in their blind holes with its slot facing upward. An upper rail is mounted between the upper ends of the end posts in their notches with its slot facing downward. A set of the panels are placed between the end posts and seated in the slots of the rails to form a wall. No additional mechanical fasteners are required to join any of these components.

A section of a concrete fencing system, comprising a combination of only three major components, including:
- end posts having a plurality of rail openings located on facing surfaces of the end posts;
- rails extending between and terminating in the rail openings such that the rails are fully supported by the end posts within the rail openings;
- and
- panels mounted directly to and fully supported by only the rails.
A concrete fencing system, comprising:
- a plurality of end posts, each having a pair of upper rail openings located on one end of the end posts, and a pair of lower rail openings located adjacent to an opposite end of the end posts, wherein the upper and lower rail openings are located on facing surfaces of the end posts;
- an upper rail extending between each adjacent pair of the end posts, wherein the upper rails terminate in the upper rail openings such that the rails are fully supported by the end posts within the upper rail openings;
- a lower rail extending between each adjacent pair of the end posts, wherein the lower rails terminate in the lower rail openings such that the rails are fully supported by the end posts within the lower rail openings;
- and
- a plurality of panels mounted directly to and fully supported by only the rails.
