Frequently Asked Questions

What Is A Hoop Barn?

Hoop Buildings are typically designed to house swine, livestock and storage. They are usually constructed from steel arches that connect to sidewalls made of wood, concrete or steel. Attaching the arches to the sidewall allows the wind and roof load to be transferred to the ground. This allows you to avoid intrusive poles in the middle of the building.
