Does anyone know if it is required by law to have insulation on a Quonset hut ?
I have seen several that have bare metal walls, and are homes.
On the SteelMaster website, they state that it is not required, but it doesn't mention if it is required by code when used as a home.
Supposedly, a guy has one in the desert and it "doesn't get hot enough to reqire an A/C"
From the SteelMaster site :


So the building is cool to the touch? Sounds like the guy is B.S.
I like the look of the exposed ribs though.
The buildings look awful when insulated, unless you create an actual ceiling to cover up the mess.

And this is just one of several homes I have seen that seem to lack insulation :
