Read about the projects below to learn more about SteelMaster and how our customers have utilized our Quonset huts for their building needs.
This building, known as the “Salcha Dome,” is used for the Alaskan Pole Vault Club. It is comprised of two parts: a main 35’ x 45’ building connected to a 12’ x 80’ structure that is used as a runway. Because heating in Alaska is expensive, he only heats the main part of the building and separates the two sections with an insulated garage door. The building has radiant floor heating.
In the three years Bob C.’s SteelMaster building has been assembled, it’s lasted through three winters and now two major earthquakes. Bob opted for our X-Model, which is the most popular for areas with heavy snow.
Many SteelMaster customers save money by building their own custom endwalls with locally purchased materials. This Alaskan storage building has custom wooden endwalls, with a wooden ramp leading up to it.
SteelMaster customer Rod E.’s Quonset hut cabin is the perfect place to get some rest and relaxation in the Alaskan wilderness. Located about 24 miles from his home, the 20’ x 24’ A-Model cabin is so remote that the only way to get there is by boat or snow machine.
Typically, customers use two shipping containers with a cover in between to create a structure. However, this boat storage structure is unique in that it only uses one shipping container in its design.

This floating Quonset hut is used by the Northern Southeast Regional Aquaculture Association, Inc.

The building is used as a hatchery for the restoration and rehabilitation of Alaska’s salmon stocks.
SteelMaster is the industry leader providing top-quality metal sheds to customers looking for adequate storage. This customer painted customized their shed by painting the arches a dark brown color.
All SteelMaster buildings are designed to accommodate heavy snow loads in areas that experience frequent snowstorms, such as Alaska. Due to the pitched roof of this Quonset hut workshop, the snow slides right off the roof.
