How to Form a Foundation for a Quonset Building

Learn expert advice for how to Form a Foundation for a Quonset Building with our step-by-step instructions.

  • Around since World War II, Quonset huts have always been a convenient solution when there's a need for sturdy, lightweight storage or shelter that can be quickly assembled.
  • Because Quonset huts are prefabricated, all you need to set one up is a place to put it.
  • Form a simple foundation and slab and fill your forms with concrete.
  • Mark out the measurements of your Quonset hut on the ground where you’ll be placing the shed.
  • Both measurements should be the same.
  • Attach the string to one of the stakes, a few inches above the ground, and run it to the next stake, wrapping it around the second stake to secure it.
  • Spray the paint directly over the string, pointing down at the ground, so that your paint line is exactly where your string line is.
