£51 a meter here for 35 NewtownLoad of ready mix is about £600 for 8 cube. Only about half mile from quarry too. This was the quote we got from 3 different companies. Wish it was half the price!

Probably because there is 6 or 7 different companies trying to undercut each other within ten mileswhy is concrete so much cheaper in Ireland
We do,I don't think you have aggregate tax?
Ah sorry, that is bloody cheap then.We do,
your dreaming at €60k, double at least. €500 a head would be cheap. I have a shed as you describe but birds are causing me serious problems and probably would go with that design again.
You haven't a hope of fitting 250 cattle in 160ft of a shed with only a tank of 20ft. I have a 110*50 ft fully slatted tank here under a similar shed and would be wedged solid at 200, 600kg cattle. You need 25 - 30sq feet for large animals lying on slats
I'm guessing it'll cost you 40%What would this type of shed cost me. Keep it cheap.... with 60% grant from Department. Holding 120 cattle, 6 bays long feeding 10 cattle at front and back. Tank width 30 ft. 15 ft slats.
It just always has been, roof sheets and steel etc is dearer thoughwhy is concrete so much cheaper in Ireland

That will work perfect , but will be expensive / hd to build , that is a very wide slat , they are available but are very dear , it will be cheaper to build a double tank with 2 11'6 slats with a wall down the middle , this will also be easier to agitate , you don't need all that feed space for the amount of stock that she'd will hold , if you widen your slatted area by 7 ft and shorten the shed by 2 bays it will hold the same amount of stock for a lot less money .long and narrow is expensive.Would this one be better James ds?
70 I'd have on it at leastHow many 650kg cows can you fit and 15 foot slats that are 100 foot long?
A lot we empty a shed that has over 800 cows in it all on slats with feed passage in the middleHow many 650kg cows can you fit and 15 foot slats that are 100 foot long?
