Pre-engineered chicken farms

Construction of a chicken farm in Africa, the Middle East and Eurasia

Insulated lightweight prefabricated buildings are built for poultry breeding. At the design stage, the type of poultry house for chickens is determined, the construction and arrangement of the premises depends on the functionality. The main features of any chicken coops are the creation and maintenance of stable humidity and temperature parameters for comfortable keeping of chickens. They need a special microclimate.

The premises are equipped with industrial equipment that facilitates the care of poultry, simplifies the procedure for feeding, collecting eggs, and slaughtering meat boilers. The construction of capital chicken coops is not always justified; it is possible to reduce general construction costs using BVZ technologies. Frame buildings are built faster, year-round.

Features of a prefabricated chicken coop

The format of metal structures, the multiplicity of spans along the length is limited by the size of piece metal products used to form the frame. It is possible to build a chicken coop for 100 chickens and large structures designed for a thousand livestock. Prefabricated chicken coops are built for various purposes: the production of eggs, raising broilers for meat, breeding offspring using incubators and rearing young animals to a productive age.

In small farms, it is practiced to build full-cycle chicken farms from “hatching” chickens to slaughtering old and meat chickens.

When designing, space zoning is provided taking into account the functionality of the farm. Be sure to highlight:

• administrative and utility block with offices for management, change houses, a rest room for staff, rooms for storing cleaning equipment;
• a workshop for the repair of lighting products, industrial equipment;
• warehouses for storing a weekly supply of feed;
• slaughter and packing shops;
• veterinary post;
• refrigerators for finished products.

When growing young animals, they plan an incubator compartment, create special conditions: growing chickens need light and warmth. The useful area is calculated according to the current standards, taking into account the planned livestock.

In recent years, prefabricated chicken coops with one-year poultry keeping, the organization of free space for the active movement of individuals, have been popular. It is important to take into account the characteristics of the breed, the egg laying of egg hens. Sanitary pens are provided, young animals are kept separately from adult birds.

Buildings should have tambour entrances and entrances, thresholds at a level of 30 cm from the floor to exclude drafts. Outside the chicken coop, a room is being built to collect and store chicken manure. All technological openings are equipped with coarse mesh. Install a backup power supply, tanks for water supplies in case of an accident.

Stages of construction of turnkey chicken coops

The contractor performs the entire scope of work from the preparation of the construction site to the connection of the finished facility to the central communications.

Main production processes:

1. Foundation laying with earthworks;
2. Formation of a metal frame from finished semi-finished products manufactured at the production site;
3. Sheathing of metal structures with wall materials (sandwich panels);
4. Arrangement of insulated roof (single or gable roof);
5. Laying communications;
6. Equipment installation;
7. Interior decoration;
8. Facade painting or cladding;
9. Commissioning works.
10. Joints and seams are sealed, special attention is paid to lighting and ventilation.

Benefits of building a chicken coop with sandwich panels

1. Construction is carried out year-round, ready-made house kits are delivered to the facility.
2. The assembly of the BVZ is carried out in any weather, with the exception of heavy rain and strong wind, which is unacceptable during horseback work.
3. For light frame structures, a powerful concrete foundation is not required.
4. The construction of a warm chicken coop will cost 30-50% cheaper than the construction of capital buildings.
5. Chicken farms do not require a powerful heating system, heating costs are minimal due to the good thermal insulation properties of sandwiches with a polyurethane layer.
6. The materials used are resistant to disinfectant solutions, high humidity, and are not subject to biological damage.
7. BVZ comply with fire safety regulations.
8. Installation work does not require powerful special vehicles.

Calculation of the construction of a chicken coop

With the skills to work with a "regular" tool, you can build a homemade chicken coop yourself. But if you are planning to build a chicken coop for 100 chickens or more, it is better to contact a specialized company. PC VESTA will offer you a typical chicken farm project or develop an individual one, taking into account the livestock, technology and degree of mechanization of the farm.

This decision is rational, since prefabricated chicken coops are easy to expand and complete with an increase in the number of chickens. If necessary, additional modules can be completed (for example, for storing feed, for breeding other types of poultry).

On the PK VESTA website. The high-tech WebSteel® service is hosted, which allows you to engage in design without engineering training. It is enough to enter the initial data to find out the approximate amount of investment. Access to a free resource around the clock. You can print a 3D visualization of the project, as well as changing the main parameters, choose the best version of the project.
