A [W] quonset hut is a lightweight prefabricated structure in the shape of a semicircle.

It is often on military bases, farms, and used as airplane hangers.

It is commonly made out of steel sheet metal and contains entrances at the front and back.

Tagging

If used on an airplane hanger, add aeroway=hangar instead of mapping it as building=hangar.
