Ruan Grazing Station machinery shed
Project overview
The owners of Ruan Grazing Station, Lee and Owen, originally approached us to design and construct two buildings—a hay shed and a machinery shed. We worked with them to ensure the design of the sheds was best suited to outback Queensland conditions and their specific requirements.
After conversing with CSB for a while, Lee said she would love to build a horse arena for her husband. We liaised with Lee for a custom riding arena cover and supplied the design, construction, and installation of all three buildings.

Challenges and solutions
During the design process for all three buildings, the steel market was facing serious shortages due to the economic effects of COVID-19. The Colorbond colour requested by Lee and Owen was out of stock in Australia. We liaised to find an alternative colour. After organising a special delivery, Bluescope in Rockhampton secured new stock for Ruan Grazing Station in time for the delivery of their sheds.
Due to the remote location, we worked closely with transport companies to deliver the three buildings together over a distance of 2000 km. Once the sheds were delivered, our subcontracted installers completed the installation of the machinery shed, hay shed, and riding arena cover in seven days.
