Full structural engineering was provided for a new 72‑by‑400‑foot chicken barn near Brighton, Ontario, covering foundations, slab‑on‑grade, and superstructure design. The structure consists of reinforced concrete strip footings and 9‑inch poured concrete foundation walls supporting insulated 2x6 stud walls with steel exterior cladding, interior plywood and liner panels.
