engineered for superior ventilation and swine health
Managing a successful pig operation requires precise climate control, excellent ventilation, and a low-stress environment. Calhoun Super Structure designs custom fabric hoop barns for pigs and swine housing built to protect your herd from harsh weather, improve air movement, and withstand high-moisture, high-ammonia environments.
Whether you are expanding a pig gestation unit, raising deep-bedded grow-finish pigs, or needing modular penning space for swine, Calhoun’s wide-span fabric structures provide the flexible layout and durable engineering required for modern pig farming.
Swine operations depend on consistent shelter, airflow and corrosion resistant steel frames. Fabric structures provide reliable protection from the elements while maintaining ventilation to support swine health and reduce stress.
Pourquoi Calhoun
Custom ventilation systems—including sidewall curtains, ridge vents, and mechanical fans—help manage humidity and ammonia buildup to support optimal climate control and pig herd health year-round.
Translucent fabric covers allow natural sunlight to enter, creating a bright, low-stress environment for pigs while lowering daytime lighting and energy costs.
Buildings mount seamlessly on concrete walls, wood walls or full concrete foundations to accommodate deep-litter straw systems or slatted manure pits.
Engineered fabric structures can be installed in weeks rather than months, minimizing operational downtime and providing a faster return on investment.
Hot-dip galvanized steel framing withstands high-ammonia and high-moisture environments, protecting structural integrity and ensuring long-term durability.
Column-free wide-span designs allow for flexible penning layouts, easy sorting and feeding, and efficient maneuverability for cleanout equipment.
Flexible building layouts allow you to easily extend or adapt your swine housing as your herd grows or operational needs evolve.
Durable fabric covers and high-performance steel components require minimal long-term maintenance, keeping your operating and repair costs low.
Tell us about your project goals, building requirements, site location, and intended use. Whether you need a feeding alley or calving pen, our team will help identify the right building solution for your operation and budget for pigs and swine.
Once we understand your needs, we review key project details including building dimensions, access requirements, fabric options, doors, ventilation, insulation, and site conditions. We also evaluate local wind, snow, and environmental loads to ensure the structure is designed specifically for your location.
After project approval, our engineering team performs a comprehensive site-specific review using advanced 3D Nonlinear Finite Element Analysis (FEA). Once engineering is complete, the steel framework is fabricated, hot-dip galvanized, and prepared for shipment alongside the fabric building system.
Calhoun offers installation services through experienced crews or can support your preferred contractor. Following installation, our team remains available for inspections, maintenance, repairs, fabric recovering, and relocation services to help maximize the lifespan of your investment.
