Portable garages A basic primer
To put it in the simplest of words, Quonset huts are nothing but a building structure made up of lightweight metal arranged in the shape of a semicircular cross section extended over a considerable area to shade the ground. The cross section of the surface is semi circular, which is basically a sheet of iron or other popular alloys of iron and are further coated with a layer of Zinc or Tin, as the case may be to add to the resistance towards getting corroded. The first Quonset hut was first produced in a small village in the Rhode Island called Davisville at specific location called Quonset Point. This is the reason why Quonset huts are called so. The first customers of this structure were interestingly the US Navy which was looking for a supple and adaptable building structure to cater their immediate needs to harbor safely their arms, soldiers and other supplies during the Second World War.
