This plan gives construction details for a pole-frame hay storage with a clear-span truss roof. It was designed primarily for round bales although it can serve equally well for handling and storing smaller rectangular bales. Building length and width can be adjusted to suit individual needs and local roof snow loads. The plan shows a span of 12 m (40 ft), with the length any multiple of 2.4 m (8 ft), the spacing of the sidewall poles. The height is 5.7 m (19 ft) from ground to trusses, convenient for framing with 7.2 m (24 ft) CCA pressure-treated round utility poles.
