Steel Structure Chicken Shed Construction

The Steel structure chicken shed construction is an agricultural building with H-shaped steel and C-shaped steel as the main structural framework. Its wall panels and roof panels replace the traditional brick wall materials and are replaced by lightweight and integrated panels with better insulation performance. As a reliable steel structure supplier and manufacturer in China, EIHE Steel Structure is committed to providing users with a complete set of breeding system engineering that integrates structural safety, environmental control, biological safety and other aspects.

Core structure composition

● Main load-bearing system

The steel beams and columns of the Steel structure chicken shed construction are made of H-shaped steel with better structural performance. They are connected by high-strength bolts. This forms the building framework.

● Enclosure covering system

The walls and roof are made of polyurethane or rock wool sandwich panels, with a thickness usually ranging from 75mm to 100mm. This is not only the wall but also the crucial insulation layer, ensuring that the chicken coop is warm in winter and cool in summer.

● Auxiliary functional system

Includes automatic feeding/water supply lines, crawler-type manure cleaning system, wet curtain cooling system, fan negative pressure ventilation system, and intelligent environmental control electrical control box. The function of the steel structure is to provide stable suspension and installation supports for these precision equipment.

Product feature

● The construction period is extremely short.

All the components are prefabricated in factories, and only bolts are needed for on-site assembly. The main structure of a 10,000-bird-scale Steel structure chicken shed construction can be installed in the shortest time of 7-10 days, without being restricted by winter low temperatures for construction.

● Large-span space without columns

Steel structures can achieve a span of 12-15 meters or even larger. There are no load-bearing columns inside, which greatly facilitates the operation of automated equipment and the implementation of epidemic prevention and disinfection procedures.

● Anti-corrosion treatment

Modern steel chicken coops all use galvanized (galvanizing amount ≥ 275g/㎡) or aluminized zinc sheets, which can effectively resist the erosion of strong corrosive gases such as ammonia and hydrogen sulfide produced by chicken manure fermentation, and have a service life of 15-20 years.

● Reconstructible and recyclable

Steel can be disassembled and reused. If the land lease expires, the building's residual value rate is much higher than that of brick-and-concrete structures.

Product Design Suggestions

● Roof Ventilation Holes Reserved

The roof of the Steel structure chicken shed construction ust be equipped with an effective ventilation roof or air chamber, utilizing the principle of hot air rising to discharge the accumulated hot air and harmful gases at the top.

● Floor Moisture Barrier Layer

The chicken coop floor often uses 10-15cm thick C25 concrete + anti-seepage membrane. It must be disconnected from the steel column foundation to prevent dampness from the underground from being transmitted along the steel columns to the walls.

● Wind Resistance and Snow Load Design

When designing, it is necessary to conduct force calculations based on the wind pressure and snow pressure values of the local 50-year event. Do not simply copy general drawings; otherwise, it is very likely to have accidents such as the roof being crushed by heavy snow.

Product Packaging and Shipping

Our Steel structure chicken shed construction can be delivered by various transportation methods according to customer requirements, including sea transportation, land transportation, and air transportation. During packaging, we usually make a steel pallet and place each component on the pallet. This packaging method not only facilitates product transportation but also fixes the components to prevent them from being bumped.

FAQ

1. How long can the Steel structure chicken shed construction last?

The designed service life of this type of building is 30 to 50 years. As long as it is maintained and cleaned regularly, it can be used for 50 years.

2. Can it be expanded later?

Yes, if considering the expansion in the future, expansion interfaces can be reserved on the steel frame in advance. When installing the new steel structure, it will not affect the normal operation of the chicken coop.

3. How to prevent corrosion in humid areas?

Choosing steel structure components and panels with galvanized coating can effectively solve the problem.
