Cowsheds are generally higher.

Hello friend, let's see if you want to breed calves or adult beef cattle. According to the local temperature change and the production situation of the cattle farm, it is better to sit in the cowshed facing south or southeast. The cowshed should have a certain number and size of windows to ensure sufficient sunshine and air circulation. The roof has a certain thickness and good thermal insulation performance. The layout of various facilities in the shed should be scientific and reasonable, which is conducive to the growth of beef cattle. Combining with my own planning and design of Dahan cattle farm construction, I will talk about some of my experiences:

1. The foundation and wall are 8- 100 cm deep, the brick wall is 24 cm thick, the double-slope cowshed roof is 4.0-5.0 meters high, and the front and rear eaves are L0-3.5 meters high. There is no fence around the lower part of the inner wall of the cowshed, which prevents moisture from infiltrating into the wall and improves the firmness and heat preservation of the wall.

2. Doors and windows are 2. 1-2.2m high and 2-2.5m wide. Doors are generally set as double doors, and can also be set as rolling doors. The enclosed windows are larger, with a height of 1.5m, a width of 1.5m and a sill height of 1.2m from the ground.

3. Site area The ancillary buildings such as beef cattle production, cattle farm management and workers' life need a certain site and space. The scale of the cattle farm can be calculated according to the required area and long-term planning of each cow. The area of cowshed and other houses is 15%-20% of the total site area. Because of the different sizes, production purposes and feeding methods of cattle, the area occupied by each cow is also different. The required area of each fattening cow is 1.6-4.6 square meters, the grass is 2.3-4.6 square meters in each cow pen, and each cow has a fence 1.6-2.0 square meters.

4. The most commonly used roof is the double slope roof. This type of roof can be applied to large-span cowshed and cows of all sizes. This kind of roof is economical, good in heat insulation and easy to construct.

5. Cattle beds and feeding trough beef farms are mostly fed through trough groups. Cattle beds are generally required to be 1.6- 1.8m long and 1.0- 1.2m wide. The slope of cattle bed is 1.5%, and the position of cattle trough end is high. The feeding tank is located in front of the cattle bed, and the fixed cement tank is the most suitable. Its upper width is 0.6-0.8m, and its bottom width is 0.35-0.40m, showing an arc shape. The rafters have an inner edge of 0.35m (near the cow bed) and an outer edge of 0.6-0.8m (near the aisle). In order to operate conveniently and save labor, it is better to build a high channel and a low channel. That is, the outer edges of the grooves and channels are on a horizontal plane.

6. Double-row cowshed with head-to-head feeding through passage and excrement ditch. The width of the middle passage is1.4-1.8m. The width shall be subject to the passage of the feeding truck. The road and groove are integrated, and the road width is 3 meters (including the groove width). The width of dung ditch should be 0.25-0.3m wide, 0. 15-0.3m deep, and the inclination is1:50-1:100.
