100’x200’ Free Span roof structure “on a budget”.......heck Not only will I subscribe, I’ll drive to Texas to see it!

OP- tell her it ain’t happening “on a budget”
It will happen on a budget, a big big budget.

Steel structure. Does she give lessons?

The miracle truss link was interesting. Not to my knowledge. Can't even ride now because arena is too wet.

Chicken houses are built as cheaply as possible. I would copy their design, or buy an old one and use the trusses. Just look for the biggest one out there and base your design around what's available.

Years ago my aunt had 3 Tyson barns on her property. Thanks!

What ever came of this? Cost wise..

Maybe the best budget idea is a huge tarp on one end on a roller to pull out when rain is coming..keep the arena dry. Then after rain roll it up and ride.. they have huge tarps for sport fields. Not sure how much an issue it would be sitting inside taking up room at one end of the arena..

Just would need to hold it down well..maybe park on top of it?? Something super heavy..

The wife paid $295,000 for (her) 120x200x26 arena. Has a 120 mph wind rating and 60 psf snow load. Nothing cheap about an arena.

24,000 feet of covered riding... that must have been quite a project... just under a $1.25 a square foot.
