Regardless of the fact that the original Quonset hut was built during the catastrophic times of war they have hence resurfaced as the modern symbol of an American design innovation. Originally influenced by the Nissen hut design of the British, Quonset huts have thus been transformed and adapted into functional units that offer great flexibility in interior design. The primary offshoot of the initial Quonset hut design is the arch roofed warehouse model which is constructed with Aluminum. Other structures also emerged including the Weather Port units that retained some of the features of the Jamesway hut. Quonset huts have also shaped other patented housing models including the Pacific hut and the Portaseal hut units.
