We started with a 30ft by 50ft 1954 Quonset on our property about two years ago with the thought to make it usable again. This is the combination of photos and video to do that. We are currently starting another barn next to this one and we will show that more tradition pole barn building event soon.

    Thank you for your video. I’m looking at a 80’x40’ 1950’s Quonset repair and upgrade. It is a lot of work for a fabulous design!

    i know lots of work. but when finish your really have some thing very strong. ! Spay foam insulate it. I would live in it myself

    nice work,I have a similar barn here on my farm in England but it has no internal framing, relying instead on the compressing curvature of the fibre cement roofing sheets. Are the horizontal rafters necessary for structure or just storage?
  • @kagespaulding7041
    I have been trying to find roof metal that will bend. I have a Quonset like that but its 50x70. Fairly tall. So it does bend ok?
  • @seanmedic1
    how did you get flat corrogated to bend the long ways
  • @johnschneider3690
    Where did you get the curved steel? I have a near identical building.

    Can they at least survive 150 MPH wind?
