Cattle Feeding
The Accu-Steel Cattle Building is a 46’ wide Cover Building designed specifically for Beef production. The Accu-Steel Cattle Building is 44’ inside the Steel H Beam Foundation. The Accu-Steel Cattle Building’s extra width allows for a true 40 sq. ft. plus animal space per foot of building.
An Accu-Steel Cattle Building is designed on a steel H beam foundation that can be installed on existing bunk lines or new feedlot construction. The steel H beam foundation can be adjusted to the existing ground slope of the customer’s feed yard location. The steel H beam foundation is fully engineered to meet the requirements for NRCS and USDA’s Environmental Quality Incentive Program (E.Q.I.P.) The steel H beam has an excellent “pocket” between the posts to pour a concrete wall or attach fencing and gating.
The Accu-Steel Cattle Building’s steel components are Hot Dip Galvanized after manufacturing. Accu-Steel Cattle Buildings utilize 14 OZ/YD2 Accu-Fabric in an individual keder cover per building bay, this allows for easy ground level maintenance or replacement if damage occurs.
The Accu-Steel Keder Cover Attachment System terminates the cover on the eave so water does not flow around the eave and back into the bunks or building. There are two eaves standard on an Accu-Steel Cattle Building; the bunk eave is over 5’ wide and 11’ tall to provide clearance when feeding. The curtain eave is over 2’ wide and 11’ tall and is opposite the bunk eave; this eave provides an attachment area for a curtain and pushes water away from the Cover Building.
Accu-Steel Cattle Buildings have an adjustable ridge vent depending on the ventilation requirements of the Beef Producer. Accu-Steel has designed the H Beam Post to be easily installed by the customer or the customer’s contractor, and then an authorized Accu-Steel Cover Building Installation Crew will construct the Cover Building. Accu-Steel concentrates on delivering high quality Cover Buildings that meets the customer’s demands for cattle feeding. There are other high quality suppliers and installers of fencing, bunks, waterers, gates, and curtains. Accu-Steel Cover Buildings does not bundle complete packages because it limits the choice of the cattle feeder.
Accu-Steel Cattle Buildings will keep cattle cool in the summer, dry year round, manage the cattle’s environment from manure to air quality, increase daily gains, and generate more dollars on the bottom line.
