ABSTRACT:
A finishing building for hogs designed to defer to the natural laws of biological behavior. The building design allows the hogs to satisfy their exploratory drive while still providing areas for the hogs to rest, feed, etc. if they wish. The design of the building provides multiple rest areas physically separated by low walls but connected by passageways that allow the hogs to wander from area to area. Also, the rest areas are physically separated from the feeding areas, and the waste areas are also separate. The building employs the module concept, and when a number of the modules are combined into a single building, a maze effect results which produces both the nook desired for the rest areas while allowing the hogs maximum room to explore. The building also has a unique design which provides heating, cooling and ventilating of the interior without supplemental equipment.
