A windbreak is a popular method for helping to protect a farm building’s interior climate from the outside. Even in well-insulated buildings, windbreaks can offer additional benefits in boosting energy efficiency.

In structures such as pole barns that serve as animal housing and have a roof but no or few walls, these can help protect the livestock from the elements and particles carried by the wind. The most traditional way of creating a windbreak is by planting a row of bushes or trees alongside the structure.

And the modern version comes in the form of screens that are made specifically for this purpose and installed along an exterior wall. Whether a windbreak will be beneficial for your purposes depends on your individual project.

Either way, Strong Building Systems can provide you with a farm building that features interior insulation that is in keeping with your need and request.

Getting the right sized farm building can make all the difference in your day-to-day operations. And while we’ve found that it’s not the size of the lot available for the building that is of major concern to most farm owners, it can be difficult to find that perfect balance of building size.

After all, it’s not always true that the bigger the building the bigger the cost. There are cases the cost per square foot goes down as size increases, creating more room in the budget for, well, more room.

What really matters is how well the structure will continue to serve its purpose in the years to come, and size plays an important role in that. For this reason, the best way to determine with accuracy the size of building that best fits your needs is to discuss it with an expert. We invite you to claim your free quote right now.

There are many farms where large barns or other structures serve a variety of purposes. They can, for example, not only house livestock but also feature an office and ample storage space. Another example is when the workshop also serves as camper storage or boat storage since these vehicles are not used as often.
