Steel is an extremely reliable material. There are many structures that were built using steel in the twentieth century that are still as reliable today as they were the day they were constructed. This is because steel can last more than 50 years without wearing out. Steel buildings are more cost effective then other building materials. They are also faster and easier to construct as they are custom made to fit. Here is a list of five of the most iconic structures that have passed the test of time. The Eiffel Tower The Eiffel Tower was built in 1889. It was named after the engineer that designed it, Gustave Eiffel. After its completion, it retained the record of being the tallest structure in the world for 40 years. The tower was put up using 7,300 tons of steel.

It is a big investment, so you need to have a reason for building. Will it help improve productivity, animal health and welfare or overall returns? Will it help with the efficiency? Is it a replacement for an existing building or added space? It would be a good idea to  Spend some time thinking about these issues before you get into the detail of what you need. your needs Once you have decided what you need from the new building, think about how it is going to be used, the level of flexibility you require from it and how long you expect it to last. This will impact what materials you would need to use. a building designed to house dairy cows, will need to be very different from one used for hay or grain storage. Think about the future Do you need a general-purpose building which can be adapted to different uses at different ti...

Steel framed buildings with concrete flooring either purpose built as calf housing or an existing building should not be too large for the farm's system. This is because calves up to four weeks of age are temperature sensitive animals under UK winter conditions. Large  buildings may create an airspace that is difficult to maintain. Gust of wind and shifting air movements may produce draughts or cold zones and with large numbers of animals under one roof there is a heightened risk of disease. If steel frames sheds are being built it would be better to construct a number of smaller ones. As well as more manageable airspace, it would make for a more hygienic/clean and flexible unit. The upside of using steel framed buildings in this way is the buildings durability, longevity  and adaptability of the space that can serve purposes other than calf rearing. They can also be custom built to your every requirement. PROS They will last They are adaptable and can serve...
