Our horse barns are made with galvanized construction with support columns every 12′-on the standard designs-to accommodate stalls. A metal building differs from a horse barn in that the metal building has clear-span I-beam construction. This type of design offers plenty of room inside but is not well suited for use as a barn because of the gap created by structural girts.
