Planning and Design of Prefabricated Beef Cattle Barns Constructed by Lightweight Concrete for Cold Climate Regions

Abstract

It is very important to increase the income levels of livestock enterprises and engaged in animal production in our country by producing barns with modern and economic methods. In this study, prefabricated barn types which are built as opposed to traditionally built barns of the cold regions like Erzurum was revealed. Concerning tie-stall type barn, as for the number of animals 10, 20, and 30 headstocks discussed in the study. Moreover, the tie-stall prefabricated barn project is designed by using 50 tunnel type light-weight concrete materials to illustrate an example for commercial enterprises. At the end of the study, it was determined that prefabricated lightweight concrete barns were more economical than produced traditionally classical-type barns. As the number of cattle increased, the cost of barn decreased per cattle for cold climate conditions. The cost reduction percentage for 10-head barns was determined as 38.0% and 38.9% for lightweight concrete cylindrical roof and light concrete tunnel roofed barn types, respectively. These values were calculated as 60.5% - 61.4% for 20 head barns, and 59.9% - 60.4% for the 30 head barns. Among the studied barn types, it was found that the most economically suitable barn combination was a prefabricated barn with tunnel roof and lightweight concrete.
