South Farm Livestock Shed
External concrete slab | Lincolnshire, United Kingdom
Due to the cattle shed being used for feeding in the winter months, the slabs of these sheds have the potential to be exposed to acidic liquids and animal waste. This could cause corrosion and spalling. In order to prevent this Durus EasyFinish Macro and Fibrin XT Micro fibres were used which removed the need for steel mesh.
