Question

Is there a permission to build fences on Yom Tov? I was in a place where they were building it, and my heart is troubled because if it is forbidden, it is forbidden forever. I would also appreciate sources.

Answer

Shalom u'vracha

There are many types of assembling fences. If it involves a tight connection, which is usually left for a long time, it is forbidden to do, and it is forbidden to use if it was done.

However, if it is easily assembled, sometimes there is no prohibition at all.
