I have three different barns that I drive into . all three are built into a hill side with a stable under the hay mow . Two of the old barns were built in the old post and beam style from one hundred years ago. the other barn was built in 2000. The new barn has 2 inch floor joist on edge on 12 inch centers , with 1/2 inch plywood , and that is covered with two inch plank. I have driven a 10,000 lb tractor in the upstairs on the new barn . Not so brave with the old barns . If the floor has only 1 inch boards , I would cove them with 2 inch plank , you can leave a gap between the plank of about 2 inches , so a skid steer tire will always be on two planks at any one time . I have had a dry rotted floor board break out under me before in one of the old bans , wakes you up. That was when I started putting down plank , lol. if you can't drive into the upstairs of your barn , I don't see how you could do this either.

Cylinders are the reason for the hydraulic circuit. They take the fluid power delivered from the pump and magically change it into mechanical power. There are many types of cylinders that one might run across on a farm scenario. Each one could take a chapter in
