These are usually designed for the care and housing of horses. The better qualities have some decoration and include brick, brick veneer or wood as the exterior finish, and merge into occupancy 559 (High-Value Stable). Interiors have finished stalls, with restrooms, tack room and good finishes throughout. Good lighting and water service are also included.
The lower quality stall barns use block or low cost wood finishes on the walls and low cost roof systems. Floors may be finished only in feed and tack rooms, with the remaining floors being dirt. Stalls are not finished and there is no lighting or plumbing.
The stable's size and the needs of the owners influence the facilities that would be included within the stable. Commonly, the following areas can be found: Stalls or boxes, feed, tack, manure bunkers and lavatory accommodations. The better qualities may also include a sick box, washing and cleaning room, and sitting room for grooms.
