Due to the low slope angle of barn roofs, accumulation of snow loads can create stress on the roof structure, potentially resulting in damage or collapse.
This infographic, produced in partnership with the Canadian Pork Council, gives information on how to prevent barn roof collapses due to snow loads.
The Canadian Agricultural Safety Association (CASA) co-ordinates, develops and leads national initiatives to help farmers, their families and workers recognize and manage safety risks. CASA is funded in part by the Government of Canada under the Sustainable Canadian Agricultural Partnership, a federal, provincial and territorial initiative and receives additional support from the agricultural and corporate sectors.
