Barn Plans and Farm Building Plans from
The University of Tennessee Extension Service
The University of Tennessee Extension maintains a file of
approximately 290 building and equipment plans. Large scale
printed plans are available by mail to residents of the state of
Tennessee, but reduced, 8 1/2"x11" instant-download plans are
free, online, for everyone.
The free plans include twelve horse barns from a 16'x24'
two-stall to a 48'x98' design with an indoor exercise area.
There's a 60'x140' riding arena and a variety of structures for
livestock and small animals. The list of General Barns and
Utility Sheds includes twenty three designs of pole barns,
garages, equipment shelters, tool sheds, storage sheds and other
practical outbuildings.
About These Cooperative Extension Plans: These
plans were developed over many years by engineers at U.S. Land
Grant universities. They are generally older plans that need to
be revised for today's construction methods, codes and
standards. They provide design ideas and conceptual information
for planning purposes. The plans were prepared through the USDA
Cooperative Farm Buildings Plan Exchange.
Buildings must
resist various forces from snow, wind, earthquake and use. They also must
adhere to local building and zoning codes. A local building
inspector, engineer, building supplier, or building contractor
can help you determine what is a safe and legal building for
your area.

Have all plans reviewed by your building department or by an experienced
building professional who knows local conditions, before you start to build. Plans may have to be modified by a local
