A few thoughts about commercial steel buildings
These huts are much similar to Nissen huts and their designs are also based on Nissen huts. Nissen huts were developed by British during the First World War. The name 'Quonset hut' is given because of the site, Quonset Point where these houses were first manufactured. The site where the Quonset hut was first manufactured is located in a village in North Kingstown, Rhode Island. Quonset hut was designed when the United States Navy needed simple buildings in 1941, which could be designed without any skilled labor.
