Anotations

Scope note:

Refers broadly to the class of agricultural structures that provide shelter for livestock. Two general types of animal shelters may be distinguished: the multipurpose type, a single-story building with clear-span roof construction, useful for feed storage and machinery, as well as for livestock; and the specific type, designed for a particular type of animal. For structures built by animals, such as nests, see "animal architecture."
