SteelMaster’s metal Quonset Huts are specifically engineered to withstand extreme temperatures – including the intense heat generated by lava flows. Our buildings are made with 100 percent high-quality, commercial-grade steel that has been subjected to several rigorous tests to see how it holds up in intense fire and heat.
According to the United States Geological Survey, the eruption temperature of Kilauea lava was about 2,140 degrees Fahrenheit. It takes more than that amount of heat, 2,500 degrees, for our steel buildings to even begin to burn.
