Ever wonder where the name Quonset came from? The name comes from the site of their first deployment during WWII on a US naval base at Quonset Point in Davisville, Rhode Island. Renowned for their structural strength, ease in assembly, and wide range of uses, quonset buildings, or huts were used in abundance by militaries during WWII. Hundreds of thousands of quonset buildings were built and, at the end of the war, were sold to the public as surplus. The design of an affordable, easily assembled, incredibly durable and strong structure, was perfect for people looking for a building solution.
Flash forward, quonset huts, also known as arch buildings, have become a popular and versatile building option for many different applications. These buildings feature a curved, semi-circular design that provides excellent strength and durability, while also allowing for a spacious interior with no supporting beams.
Quonset huts offer a range of customization options. They can be designed to fit a variety of different sizes, from smaller storage building to large commercial storage buildings, and can be tailored to fit specific needs, such as insulation, ventilation, and lighting. This makes them an ideal choice for a wide range of applications, including workshops, storage facilities, agricultural buildings, and even residential homes.
Made from high-quality, Galvalume Steel, these buildings can withstand even the harshest weather conditions, including heavy snow, high winds, and extreme temperatures. This makes them an ideal choice for areas that experience harsh weather, or for those who want a building that can stand the test of time.
