    Without Carl that job couldn't possibly get that pour done. He held that rake perfectly and answered all the questions with great oratorical skill. You go Carl.

    That building is going to be crazy big. The cement trucks looked small in the area 😂

    Impressive building. Any plans for all the water that will being draining off the roof ? What will power the dryer, propane ? Thanks for the video.

      Can see a pond dug out in the back ground about 200 ft behind new building.

    This is going to be a massive barn when completed. Will you be cementing the entire floor area?

    • @FarmingInsider
      @FarmingInsider  15 днів тому +1

      No sir, we don't have the funds for that right away. Right now it will just be the side where the dryers are that will be concrete

  • @frankg5466
    @frankg5466 15 днів тому +2

    so is that barn supposed to store around 150,000 bales

    • @FarmingInsider
      @FarmingInsider  15 днів тому +1

      Since the one wing will be allocated for the drying set up and not storage, somewhere around there yes

    I am a little bit late to the game, however, I am assuming that you will be putting up a timber frame building as by and large you Americans do and the “ footings “ or as we say foundations are not engineered to take the load off a single span 180 so the ( kinda ) obvious question is why have you not done foundations the length of the building to carry the load of the uprights that will support the load?

      Hey Andy good question. If I am understanding you correctly, we have done foundation for the poles on the inside. I just haven't shown it yet

    How big of a barn would you suggest to hold about 20,000 small square bales

      What kind of stacking system? Would you want to go real tall or not really?

      @@FarmingInsider I’m thinking it’ll be similar to how you have it or at least that’s what I want to do. So it’d be decently tall

    so whats a dryer and how does it work without a roof

    • @FarmingInsider
      @FarmingInsider  13 днів тому

      It probes down into the hay and blows hot air through it in batches of 15-25 minutes. It won't work all that well without a roof haha. We are hoping to get that soon
