Main Materials of the Steel Structure Chicken Shed
🔹 A. Metal Steel Frame
High humidity and ammonia concentrations inside poultry houses can accelerate facility corrosion. To counter this, we utilize hot-dip galvanized H-beams for columns and beams, alongside galvanized C-beams for purlins. The fully galvanized frame provides superior protection against corrosion, significantly extending the lifespan of the structure. For coastal areas, our advanced software designs buildings to withstand high wind resistances.
🔹 B. Wall and Roof Panels (EPS, Rockwool, Glasswool)
Insulation composite panels or veneers can be chosen depending on regional climate requirements. Panel options include EPS, glass fiber, and rockwool core sandwich panels. These composite panels provide thermal insulation and prevent rust. In hot or cold climates, insulated sandwich panels are highly recommended to control temperatures, while wire mesh walls can be used in milder climates to lower costs.
🔹 C. Height Requirements
For free-range farming, the standard eave height ranges from 2.0m to 3.5m. For cage farming, the height is designed to accommodate the specific number of cage layers and setup configurations.
🔹 D. Production & Installation Timelines
A standard poultry shed of approximately 3,000 square meters requires about one month from design and sourcing to final production completion.

Performances & Advantages
⚡ Super Aseismatic
Constructed with cold-formed steel members, the structural system achieves an aseismatic resistance grade up to level 8.
💨 Wind Resistance
High-strength steel combined with solid rigidity offers exceptional deformation resistance, withstanding wind speeds up to 50m/s.
🛡️ High Durability
Galvanized or painted steel finishes prevent corrosion and rust, yielding an overall structural lifespan of 50 to 70 years.
🌡️ Heat Insulation
Sandwich panels optimize the building's thermal properties, preventing cold-bridge effects and keeping temperatures stable.
🌱 Environment Protection
Minimal construction waste and emissions. 100% of the steel materials and the majority of structural components can be recycled.
🔧 Easy & Fast Assembly
Dry construction methods bypass weather restrictions. For example, a 300m² structure can be completed in 30 days by just 5 workers.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Why choose a steel structure for a poultry farming house?
Steel structures offer superior durability, high wind and seismic resistance (up to grade 8), and quick construction timelines compared to traditional concrete. The components are pre-engineered and galvanized, making them highly resistant to corrosion caused by humidity and ammonia in chicken sheds.
What types of insulation panels are recommended for poultry houses?
Depending on the local climate, EPS, rock wool, or glass wool sandwich panels are highly recommended. These composite panels provide excellent thermal insulation to maintain stable interior temperatures, reduce energy costs for climate control, and prevent structural rust.
How long does it take to manufacture and install a 3,000 sqm chicken shed?
For a project of about 3,000 square meters, the process from structural design and sourcing to final production takes approximately one month. Because all components are pre-fabricated, onsite installation is exceptionally fast, allowing 5 workers to finish a 300m² structure in roughly 30 days.
Can you customize the eave height for cage farming systems?
Yes. While free-range poultry houses typically require a height of 2.0m to 3.5m, cage farming setups require customized heights. The final eave height is calculated and optimized during the design phase based on the number of cage layers and structural clearance requirements.
What information is needed to receive a detailed quote and drawing?
We require the project location (country/city), building dimensions (length, width, eave height), local environmental loads (maximum wind speed and snow thickness), seismic activity level, insulation requirements (sandwich panels vs. metal sheets), and door/window configurations.
Do you supply the automatic farming equipment along with the building?
Yes, we supply a comprehensive range of ancillary equipment, including automatic main feed delivery and pan feeding systems, nipple drinking lines, ventilation fans, environmental control systems, cooling pads, heating units, and curtain systems.
