The fluid force reduction of a square prism having fences on the corner was studied by the measuring the drag and lift acting on the prism and by the visualization experiment of the flow around the prism. The height of the fence was 10% of the square width and the range of Reynolds number considered was from $Re=0.9{\times}104$ to $Re=2.1{\times}104$. The drag of the prism was reduced about 6.8% and the amplitude of the lift was reduced by attaching two normal fences on the rear corners of the prism. In this case, the separated flow at the front corners was reattached on the upper and lower sides of the prism and the vortex streets at the wake region were appeared more slowly than that of the prototype prism.
