Ben,

We have three hoop buildings made by Coverall. All three are used for livestock facilities. The sizes are 50'x260', 110'x260' and 120'x300'. The first two are six years old. So far we have been very satisfied with them. What they provide for us over conventional buildings is more ventilation, due to the height of the buildings and more light inside, due to the fabric of the building. I think for your purpose you too would like the height of the building and the better lighting inside the building.

Ben, if you do make a hoop building purchase make sure it is built by a qualified contractor. This is especially important with regards to the cement footing work required. The footing work is not complicated but needs to be done according to the engineered plans. I've heard of a couple of hoop buildings coming down due to "shady" workmanship by the contractor.


good luck with your building, gordon
