Barb wire was angled in trench warfare for protection. It was angled in a way that would prevent the enemy from entering the trenches.
Barbed wire was used to protect the trenches.
to prevent the enemies from entruding the trenches and it could help the gunners get an accurate view of the enemy
The three rows of trenches covered between 200 and 500 yards of ground. Communication trenches, were dug at an angle to the frontline trench and was used to transport men, equipment and food supplies.
Way back when, bullets would fire over trenches, making people in said trenches nearly impossible to hit. A downside to this, though, is that trenches would often be dirty and wet, and the soldiers would grow nasty foot fungus and other ailments.
Long periods of intense discomfort in the trenches from the weather and enemy shelling punctuated by patrolling, working on the trenches, setting up wire barricades and other daily necessary duties. Attacks were short, hours, or long, up to a few days and resulted in the most casualties.

To break through the barbed wire obstacles and cross the trenches.
The three rows of trenches covered between 200 and 500 yards of ground. Communication trenches, were dug at an angle to the frontline trench and was used to transport men, equipment and food supplies.
The angle which the axis of the spring wire makes with the horizontal line is known as helix angle.

From an engineering viewpoint the different between a wire and a bar is the load applied. A wire is always loaded in the axial direction. a bar is loaded from an angle, in most examples it has a 90 degree angle.
Wire is often strung between machine guns and front trenches to create a defensive barrier that hinders enemy movement. This wire, typically barbed, serves to entangle and slow down advancing troops, making them more vulnerable to machine gun fire. Additionally, it acts as a psychological deterrent, signaling the presence of a fortified position. Overall, it enhances the effectiveness of the machine guns by providing a layer of protection for both the guns and the soldiers in the trenches.
Well, soldiers fighting in the war had to dig trenches and set up barbed wires along the trenches. They would shoot enemies that were approaching and the barbed wire would slow them down. The trenches provided protection(sometimes) from machine guns.
Once to the top of the trenches, the troops would make their way across their own barbed wire and walk across no-man's land in an attempt to make it to the enemy trenches.
