nave experimental
Spanish to English
Science
Livestock / Animal Husbandry
An experiment on livestock in Spain will take place "...en las XX cuadras diferentes en la nave experimental"
I am pretty sure that the "nave" is as defined below, but don't know what an Ag school would call such a thing in English:
Construcción de amplias dimensiones donde está instalado un almacén o una industria: la empresa adquirió una gran nave en un polígono industrial de la zona. - Gran Diccionario de la Lengua Española © Spes Editorial 2001
It could be useful to hear especially UK terminology.
Thanks,

experiment building
"Building" is a normal translation for "nave", also used here in Spanish as defined above. So far I have not been able to come up with a specific word in English that could fit the bill, so "building"is it. "Plant" and "warehouse" do not fit.
I would prefer not to use "experimental" because the building itself is not experimental; rather, it is used for experiments. Of course I would criticise the original in Spanish for the same defect.

Note from asker:
Thanks Henry, I tried to select this several times over the last several days. Apparently the technical problem has been solved. I reccommend entering this as: experiment / experimental building. You are correct logically, but with language, as they told me in the Army, "if everyone else is wrong and you're right, you're wrong". |

: I'm surprised at the hits for "experiment facility," but logically it's correct. The facility isn't experimental; what goes on inside it, is!

experimental housing unit
if the animals are going to live in the "nave" while the experiments are conducted then the "nave" would comprise a housing unit for the animals

I used to farm sheep in North Wales and animals while kept indoors are termed "housed" to distinguish that from the periods when they are kept outdoors in the fields

experimental / trial shed
If it's got animals, in particular pigs in it, this is how I would say it, although Deborah's is also correctísimo!

PS this is the word I use when showing UK visitors round our pig farm. And yes, each shed is divided into various sections.
