What Is a Seneca Barn?

Prefab seneca barns are structures that have a central unit along with two lean-tos on both sides. These comprise a continuous roof extending on the lean-tos, creating an A-frame roofline. Also known as continuous roof barns, these are renowned for their high durability and clear span designs.

Offering great resilience against weather elements, these structures also do not aid the accumulation of debris, dust, snow, rainwater, and tree saps as they effectively expedite water and snow run-off and shedding, withstanding adverse weather conditions, too.

Seneca roof barns have sliding roofs meeting at the ridge, creating a triangular shape at the top. Featuring simple designs and iconic barn elements such as gables and open interiors, these structures are renowned for their versatility and modern designs like sleek lines.

Offering robust strength and high durability, Seneca barns are also easier to customize because of the lack of interior columns, allowing you to design and create a layout that works best for your unique needs!

Popular Features of Metal Seneca Barns

A continuous roof barn stands out for its uniqueness and sturdiness. These structures have certain design-related features that make them a top choice:

  • Leakproof: Seneca prefab barns feature a continuous roof across the structure, limiting the chances of leakage. Built with high-quality galvanized steel, these structures allow snow and rainwater to shed off seamlessly and further reduce the possibility of leakage.
  • Clearspan Interiors: Seneca barns do not have internal posts or columns, so they feature clearspan interiors with no beams interrupting the space. The clearspan design can be integrated into barns up to 300 feet in width. This maximizes the usable space, allows for flexible utility, and allows for easy movement, making them ideal for industrial and commercial uses.
  • Cross Braces: These barns feature cross braces to support the continuous roof, which enhances their stability and strength. These braces prevent the barns from shifting in adverse climate conditions or cracking under pressure.
  • Multi-Purpose Layouts: A continuous roof metal barn can be utilized for numerous purposes, and you can design the layout however you want. Whether you wish to use these structures as riding arenas or to house livestock, store equipment, park vehicles, and store hay and feed, you can determine the intended use and design it accordingly!

Types Of Seneca Style Barns

There are essentially two types of steel Seneca barns, varying on the basis of their roof style:

Horizontal Roof Seneca Barns: Boxed-eave or horizontal roof Seneca barns are structures that feature horizontal roof panels running from the front to the end. These roofs do not require any additional supporting components, which makes them ideal only for moderate weather conditions. Due to horizontal paneling, they are more likely to facilitate the accumulation of weather elements than vertical roofs.

Vertical Roof Seneca Barns: These Seneca barns consist of vertical roof panels running from the higher ridge towards the lower eave ends. Ideal for all-weather conditions, these structures require extra metal elements like purlins and ridge caps to support the roof.

These structures also come with a full and deep eave side trim. Known as the strongest roof design, vertical roofs also require the least maintenance. Engineer-certified vertical roof metal barn structures can withstand wind speeds of up to 180 miles per hour and snow loads of up to 80 lbs per square foot.
