Steel building from the beginning
Famous homes that implemented the Quonset hut model include Daniel House in Tennessee which is built into the hillside using salvaged material from supports of earlier huts. Their lightweight nature if not without add on benefits since it makes transport of building material cheap as well as trouble free. Apart from the fact that they are lightweight, Quonsets are easily built on a large scale for quickness of shipping and assemblage of the prefabricated units thus making them as durable as they are inexpensive. Undeniably the Quonsets have lent their distinctive structural traits to everything from residential and commercial complexes to even places of worship. In essence Quonset huts have been nothing short of an architectural phenomenon of sorts making the journey from being utility buildings to a design breakthrough.
