Cattle Shed Modern Light Steel Frame Structure Cow Shed Open Bays
Sheds Galvanized Steel Cow barn
Project introduction:
This modern cattle shed is constructed using a robust and durable
steel structural system, specifically designed for large-scale,
efficient dairy or beef cattle farming. The main framework consists
of high-strength hot-dip galvanized I-beams or H-shaped steel
columns and steel beams, precisely connected with high-strength
bolts to form a stable spatial frame structure, offering
exceptional load-bearing capacity and resistance to wind and snow
loads.
The roof typically features a large-span lightweight portal frame
design, covered with corrugated color-coated steel sheets
(single-layer or insulated sandwich panels). This not only
effectively shields against rain, wind, and intense sunlight but
also ensures smooth drainage of rain and snow through its slope
design. The perimeter enclosures of the shed are also made of
color-coated steel sheets or open structures. Certain areas (such
as the upper sections of side walls) can be flexibly equipped with
roll-up windows or louvered windows to provide ample natural
ventilation and light regulation within the shed.
The internal layout of the cattle shed is scientifically designed.
The floor is typically made of hardened concrete with anti-slip
grooves, and features clearly defined pathways, comfortable resting
areas for cattle, centralized feeding troughs, and convenient
watering points. The spacious, high-ceilinged space and optimized
ventilation design ensure effective air circulation, reduce the
accumulation of harmful gases such as ammonia, and significantly
enhance the comfort and health of the cattle herd.

Advantages of prefabricated steel structure buildings:
| 1 | High strength and light weight | Although the density of steel is larger than that of other building
materials, its strength is very high. Under the same force, the
steel structure has a small weight and can be made into a structure
with a large span. |
| 2 | Good plasticity and good toughness | The plasticity of the steel is good, and the structure will not
suddenly break due to accidental overload or partial overload. The
toughness of the steel is good, making the structure more adaptable
to dynamic loads. |
| 3 | High degree of industrialization in production | The steel structure is mainly produced in a specialized metal
structure factory, so the production is simple and the precision is
high. |
| 4 | Simple construction and short construction period | All components are prefabricated at the factory, and the site is
simply assembled, which greatly shortens the construction period. |
| 5 | Wind resistance and structural stability | Steel structure construction with light weight, high strength, good
overall rigidity and strong deformation ability |
| 6 | Saving construction costs | The steel structure has light weight, reduces the basic cost, and
has a fast construction speed. It can be completed and put into
operation as soon as possible, and the comprehensive economic
benefits are much better than the concrete structure. |
| 7 | Recyclable | Steel can be recycled, less environmentally polluted when
constructed and removed |
Steel structure fabrication in our factory:
We have three production lines for steel structure fabrication, in
order to serve better for abroad project, we buy some advanced
machine in our production line, such as the plasma cutting machine.
Our service:
1. Structural steel fabrication, painting , galvanizing ,
pre-assembly
2. Designing, fabrication and installation for Prefabricated steel
structure building.
3. Deepen or design the fabrication drawing or shop drawing based
on your architectural drawing and construction drawing
4. Engineering consulting service

The following question we need to know before making the price.
Just feel free to fill what you know.
| 1 | Location (where will be built?) | _____country, area |
| 2 | Size: length*width*height | _____mm*_____mm*_____mm |
| 3 | wind load (max. wind speed) | _____kn/m2, _____km/h, _____m/s |
| 4 | snow load (max. snow height) | _____kn/m2, _____mm |
| 5 | anti-earthquake | _____level |
| 6 | brickwall needed or not | If yes, 1.2m high or 1.5m high |
| 7 | thermal insulation | If yes, EPS, fiberglass wool, rockwool, PU sandwich panels will be
suggested; . if not, the metal steel sheets will be ok. The cost of
the latter will be much
lower than that of the former |
