Instead of using cement/concrete to set post or anything else, use soil cement. Remove the topsoil and set it aside. Dig the hole. put in the post. Mix 10% cement in with 90% subsoil, mix in water and fill the posthole. Ten years later I had to take out one to make a new fence. Had to use sledge hammer to break it up. I have seen soil/cement floors in houses made with s/s and it works. Soil cement bricks made with a brick machine is great for building.
