A partition comprising:
- a standing pipe;
- a bracket-shaped rail of bent tube material connected to an upper end of said standing pipe, said bracket-shaped rail forming an upper portion of said partition;
- a mounting plate mounted on a horizontal support surface and weldedly fixed to a lower end of said standing pipe;
- a reinforcing foot surrounding a bottom portion of the standing pipe, said reinforcing foot comprising an upper end and a lower end, wherein the lower end of said reinforcing foot is weldedly fixed to the mounting plate separate from the connection of the lower end of the standing pipe to the mounting plate, and the upper end of said reinforcing foot is separately connected to said standing pipe, said reinforcing foot extending divergingly downward from its upper end to its lower end.

A stall comprising a plurality of partitions, said partitions being substantially parallel to each other, wherein each of said partitions comprises:
- a standing pipe;
- a bracket-shaped rail of bent tube material connected to an upper end of said standing pipe, said bracket-shaped rail defining an upper portion of said partition;
- a mounting plate mounted on a horizontal support surface and weldedly fixed to a lower end of said standing pipe;
- an elongated floor portion extending parallel to and beneath said bracket-shaped rail and defining a lower portion of said partition, said elongated floor portion having a trapezoidal cross-sectional shape and comprising an upper surface which surrounds a bottom portion of the standing pipe, a bottom surface and sides diverging downwardly from its upper surface to its bottom surface, such that two adjacent elongated floor portions and the horizontal support surface therebetween form an open trough,
- wherein a transverse bar extends between said partitions, said transverse bar being connected to the bracket-shaped rails of each of said partitions with a coupling.
