These are multipurpose buildings that may include dairy or livestock facilities and hay/grain storage. Costs are averages of several types. Common roof type in the better qualities is a gambrel to allow for loft areas. Higher quality barns may include lighting, plumbing, interior partitions, large openings, and plank or concrete floor systems. Lower quality barns may have dirt floors and simple gable or shed roofs.
For a barn hayloft floor, use mezzanine component 766 (Loft Floor/Farm Storage).
The cost does not include lofts.
