Don-WI posted about hearing a loud cracking sound coming from his barn, after putting in hay. I said I have toyed with the idea of pouring 4 inches of concrete with re-bar/wire on the floor. A few experts made some comments that this would not be such a good idea , and should talk to a pro before going a head with such a plan. And that , this would not spread out the load. Well around here I know of at least a dozen bank barns that have the hay loft floor poured over with cement. They drive 10,000 lb tractors with loaders in the barn and stack large bales. The concrete pad , once set up adds structural strength to the whole building. One barn near me has had this kind of hay mow floor for over 30 years. Sorry experts that say it will not work, and sound the alarm. It works, go figure. It also seals out drafts from up stairs in winter. Bruce
