| An example of what you can do with the interior. |
Our Quonset hut was purchased from a Craiglist posting. It's 40' wide x 70' long x 18' tall and came with one end. The original purchaser bought it to expand his business but the county building inspector gave him so much trouble, he cancelled the project. Our Quonset was built by Pioneer out of Canada and is designed to stand up to 150 mph winds, a feature not wasted on those of us who have seen our share of hurricanes.

| Q-Series |
Although Quonsets have one thing in common (they are all clear-span with no supporting columns to get in the way of your interior layout) and they can be ordered in one of several configurations:
- Q-Series - the original half cylinder with no straight walls (except the ends).
 |
| S-Series |
- S-Series - Very similar to the Q model, but with side walls that go straight up to about 5.5', then begins to curve. As luck would have it, this is the model we bought and it fits our needs perfectly.
 |
| A-Series |
- A-Series - More in keeping with the traditional pitched roof image of your normal residential architecture.
Some manufacturers offer variations on these themes and several will even build custom designs. The important thing to keep in mind is that any of these models can incorporate the same passive, self-sustaining principles we are designing into our energy-efficient Quonset home.
Very cool. Barring the glitch or two, this is unfolding nicely. Am eager to see how things progress. I smell "e-book"!
ReplyDeleteDo you know if there is a local source near Palatka Fl. that sells the steel arches? I am having trouble figuring out a basic price on a basic width and length of just an arch kit. We have no choice to pour the slab our selves luckily my brother works in construction and knows how to do this though there is still the general costs. The electrical by my other brother who is an electrician. Even with that we barely have enough to do this project but were doing it because we want to start a permaculture farm which is where my skills come in. We also want to get away from this roller coaster of bills that keep going round and round and keep us trapped just barely paying those bills. we are tryinmg to become sustainable and set another example and help others. People at my job drop their jaws when i tell them what i am doing with no fear of failing. They cant see past waiting for their retirement and for each their own. I give them some perenials to grow as foor in their yard to remember me everytime they make there free lunches right off their own fence that was used merely to keep people from walking on their grass. People are waking up because of stories like yours and people like me who are making the move as well.

My Testimony Hello everyone. Am here to testify how I got my loan from Mr. Benjamin Lee after I applied several times from various loan lenders who promised to help but they never gave me the loan.

ReplyDeleteHi there,
Craigslist are often a superb source for brand fresh customers once you learn to form and manage your ads effectively. Craigslist ads prompt a minimum of 25 calls hebdomadally and thus the bulk of these calls become solid leads.

Hi there,
ReplyDeleteThere is something mysterious about sports bicycles, such as speed increase, needing precise handling, moderate power, deftness, and so on.
