AG BUILDINGS
Remember - A parcel does NOT have to be Agricultural to price a building from the Ag Building Pricing Schedule.
Ag Factor - Use the Ag Factor if class is Ag
and don’t use the Ag Factor if the parcel is of any other class. Ag Factors are issued by the State of Iowa.
Steel Utility Buildings
• Any NEW “Machine Shed” should be priced as a Steel Utility Building from the manual.
The Machine Shed schedule is used for older
wood buildings that most likely would not have the ability to house the newer equipment used in a modern farming operation.

Lean To
• The Lean-to frame joins to and is supported by a main building frame. Common spans are 20 feet to 60 feet. The lean-to differs from the single slope in that it must be supported on the high side by an adjoining building column

Hoop FAQ
• How long will the cover last? The cover has UV inhibitors that protect the cover from the harmful sunlight. If the cover is kept tight (done easily using ratchets that keep the cover taut) 20 years is a very reasonable life expectancy. Early covers were made of 6 oz material and there are many of them still in use that are 20 years old. New buildings come standard with a 12 oz cover.
Hoop FAQ
• How much does it cost to replace the cover? Typically the cover costs between 15% and 20% of the cost of the building kit. At the time of construction the cost is approximately 10%
• How often do I have to tighten the cover? Normally you will have to tighten the cover once about a year after it is installed. Once the “stretch” is out of the cover material it won’t need to be tightened again. And tightening is easy as well. Even covers on huge buildings can be tightened in about half an hour.
Hoop FAQ • If I get a hole in the cover can you fix it?
Yes, we can. Your local dealer can heat-weld a patch that is as strong as the original cover. Also, we have “stick-on” patches that can be applied by the owner, as well.
• I have a windy location. Will it stand up to the wind? When properly installed our covers should not move except in the most extreme wind conditions. If you see the cover flap even slightly in a normal “March wind” then it probably needs to be tightened. Our truss buildings typically are engineered to a 90 MPH wind load, and canvas buildings originated in the upper mid-west portion of North America, one of the windiest places in the world.
Hoop warranty • Warranty Periods: • 5 year warranty on steel parts in main structure against
manufacturing defects in material and workmanship. • 15 year pro-rated warranty on main cover tarp only. Color and 12oz
clear options may be available upon request. Any building with fitted ends attached to the main cover such as Cabins, Run in Shelters or Calf Shelters, has a 5 year pro-rated warranty.
• 3 year pro-rated warranty on all 6oz & 7.5oz tarps. This includes roof tarp only.
• 2 year pro-rated warranty on all end tarps. This includes all 1/4 panels, solid ends, roll-up door and accutrack door tarps.
• 6 year pro-rated warranty on 12oz Fire Retardant tarps. • Pro-Rated Warranty: If cover needs replacing, the
customer/purchaser would be held responsible for the cost at 1/15 or 6.66% of the current list price per year.

Definitions • Gestation – A facility for pregnant sows • Farrowing – A facility for sows to have
offspring • Nursing – A facility for young after weaning
up to 40 lbs. • Finishing – A facility to grow into market
hogs
Definitions • Combination Farrow to Finishing – A farrow to finish
operation maintains a sow breeding herd and feeds the pigs to a finished market weight. An operation could have a 1200 head sow herd with modern buildings and equipment to care for the sow herd during gestation, farrowing, and lactation. This operation also has facilities for the weaned pigs to be grown to a finished weight. Pigs are weaned at 19-21 days of age and placed in a growing-finish facility for 165 days. Average daily gain is approximately 1.55 pounds per day and finished hogs are marketed at a weight of 270 pounds. If feeder pigs are sold rather than kept, the weaned pigs are kept in a nursery for 6 weeks before being sold as 50 lbs feeder pigs. (a friend sells at 240 pounds)
