SOFFIT BL
NATURAL CHOICE FOR; barns, milk houses, poultry build
ings, egg and potato storage, cistern tops, utility buildings,
trench silo covers, liquid manure pit covers, storm and fallout
shelters, and butchering areas.
Only the end walls of this Lebanon
County barn, built in 1776, remain
after a fire. The new floor is fireproof
soffit block, topped with a 2%"
layer of concrete.
Soffit block is a natural choice for a barn, in cost, it compares
favorably with wood But soffit block is also fireproof (which
should lower your insurance rates). It is water-resistant and
vermin-proof to protect feed from mold or pests Through the air
trapped inside the core in each block, soffit provides a more
comfortable, insulated atmosphere for livestock and it possesses
.good acoustical properties, too. As for weight, soffit is con
siderably lighter than a solid concrete slab of equal load
bearing capacity.
SOFFIT BLOCK IS MORE THAN “JUST” A CONCRETE BLOCK
... it's a construction method, too.
