Agricultural Steel Building Options

Many people may be unfamiliar with the term Quonset hut. Despite not knowing the name of this type of structure, you have likely seen one before. They can often be found on farms and in agricultural settings and represented the early format for a farmer’s field and farm building. These structures have sloped or rounded walls and are perfect for a variety of purposes beyond agriculture and farming, that also includes commercial buildings, workshops, and equipment garages.

The building specialist at Future Buildings was extremely professional, personable and so knowledgeable when recommending the ideal steel building for our farm. The kit came on two pallets and my building was really very easy to construct from there. No issues at all! I highly recommend this company.

The Benefits of Future Buildings
Quonset Agricultural Buildings

  • Construction: When building a Quonset hut, keep in mind that it does not have any interior columns or braces. This helps to make the construction quick and easy. The weight of the structure is instead held up by the unique design of the arches.
  • Customizable: Whether you want an open-ended structure for storage or prefer a closed building, a Quonset hut can be customized to match your needs and requirements. They can be further designed to include insulation, ventilation, windows, doors, and partitions to ensure that you get the most out of the space.
  • Durable: Quonset huts are created using Galvalume Plus™ steel. This makes them very durable and resistant to both rust and corrosion. In addition, they can withstand a variety of weather conditions, including heavy snowfalls and high winds.
  • Interior Space: Since there are no interior structural supports in a Quonset hut, the inside is completely open. This clear-span interior ensures that the space is unobstructed and able to be used as needed. Despite the lack of uniform height throughout the building, they are still quite spacious and able to be used for a variety of things.

Common Questions About

About Steel Garage Kits

The cost of a Quonset building kit varies. There are a lot of different factors that contribute to the overall cost, including how big it is, the building’s specifications, the number of upgrades added, and the location you wish to erect it. However, they are easy and quick to construct, which helps lower the cost compared to other buildings.

Quonset huts are incredibly strong. You won’t find many other buildings that are more durable. Quonset huts are made using commercial grade steel and an arch design. As a result, they can withstand all types of extreme weather conditions, including strong winds, hailstorms, heavy snow, and seismic activity.

Because our Quonset huts are built with such high-quality steel, they will last for a long time. It’s worth noting that we manufacture our Quonset huts using Galvalume Plus™ Steel, which comes with a 40-year rust perforation warranty.

There are several benefits to purchasing a prefabricated Quonset building instead of constructing one from scratch on-site. These include :

  • Prefab Quonset huts allow for more customization and can be designed according to use.
  • Quonset huts built out of prefabricated metal are more likely to withstand extreme weather.
  • As a result of being pre-engineered, prefab Quonset huts won’t require welding on site. It means that the actual construction on your property will be much easier and take less time.
