Quonset hut What experts say

Quonset huts were first built during the World War II when the constructors began to realize that steel buildings were not only cheap to build but it also took less time than a brick and concrete building to build one. It started off from the idea of airplane hangars built by the Military and Air force. These could be easily assembled by hand just like a freighter and in case it had to be moved, it was as easy as taking the structure apart and rebuilding it on a different location just as it was in the previous one. A small team of soldiers was sufficient to assemble, disassemble and reassemble Quonset huts measuring 15 meter long and 6 meters wide. Quonset huts were used by allies to protect their assets and soldiers from sunlight, rain and snow.
