If I’m going to build a big shed, it’ll be a ‘Bairnsdale Shed’. They know their stuff, they give good advice, and they’re great to work with from start to finish.
For over three generations, Bairnsdale Engineering has been helping industry leaders build the infrastructure they need to keep their farm and industrial operations running efficiently. Our sheds aren’t just built to withstand the elements – they are designed to suit your site, ensuring long-term productivity, livestock protection, and operational efficiency.
Whether you need a calf rearing shed, dairy milking shed, stockyard cover, machinery shed, hay shed, packing and produce storage shed, feed pad cover or a custom-built solution, we engineer sheds that integrate seamlessly with your operation.
When you invest in a ‘Bairnsdale Shed’, you’re investing in a shed that will last for generations.

From planning and permits to fabrication and construction, we manage every detail, offering a hassle-free process so farmers can focus on their business.
With decades of experience supporting Australian dairy and livestock operations, we understand the challenges farmers face. From navigating council approvals to designing for herd flow, our team ensures your shed meets both industry standards and practical needs.
With 95% of our work currently coming from referrals and repeat customers, we’re known for straightforward service, clear communication, and delivering what we promise.
No shortcuts, no compromises – just durable, high-performing structures designed to work as hard as you do. Bairnsdale Engineering builds infrastructure that keeps farms running efficiently for generations – infrastructure we would be proud to own ourselves.
Every shed is purpose-built to optimise farm efficiency. Bairnsdale Engineering specialises in customising designs that suit your farm layout rather than asking you to work around a standard design.
We understand how important it is to preserve efficient livestock flow, and we’re happy to build to fit your design.
Our in-house design team works closely with yard and dairy fit-out companies to ensure layouts integrate seamlessly into new or existing operations. A ‘footings first’ approach can be taken when building around existing infrastructure to allow for uneven post lengths and locations.

The simple shape of a universal beam allows for straightforward yet highly customised design options ensuring the structure is a perfect fit for your property. Eaves, overhangs, ventilation gaps and awnings are easily achieved while offering a clean and aesthetically pleasing design. Roof pitch can be easily customised due to the uncomplicated cut, drill and weld manufacture method of the UB frame.
The I-beam shape offers less roosting places for birds than an open web rafter, making it ideal for livestock sheds such as, dairies, beef sheds, calving sheds, animal housing, and feedpad covers.
Optimal height clearance is easily achieved as the universal beam rafters eliminate the need for knee and apex braces.
