Government’s design criteria detail height, durability requirements
President Trump’s new border wall is supposed to be 30 feet high and should look imposing to potential illegal immigrants,
Homeland Security officials said in documents Friday that officially requested the first bids to begin building the barrier along the U.S.-Mexico border.
They said their goal is a 30-foot barrier, and they would outright reject any plans that didn’t at least run 18 feet high.
The wall must also run at least six feet underground to stop anyone easily tunneling underneath it.
And it must take at least an hour, and ideally more than four hours, for someone to puncture a hole in the wall —
presumably enough time for agents to discover and chase away anyone attempting it.
The side that faces the U.S. must be easy on the eyes, too, the documents say.
