Many strange things about metal garage
Manmade housing designs have always been ruled by requirement and functionality, and special needs call for extraordinary structures, the Quonset huts. First conceived during World War I, these corrugated temporary units are built from galvanized metal. Quonset huts served as temporary shelters not only for the American military itself but were also adapted to house the postwar population explosion. Post World War II saw Quonset huts being custom built by several companies some of which adapted the original design while others continued to use the old arched shape. Despite the tragic times of its conception, the Quonset hut has emerged as an astonishing icon of the American architectural industry.
