They are very popular for all these uses, due to the ease of construction and placement. Being as large or as small as the need may be, means anything you need protected from the elements such as sun and rain is doable. Mother nature will take a toll that will damage anything given time and a chance. Most people usually have something in the house that would be better suited in a safe roomy storage shed.
For the farm community it goes far beyond just car ports and storage sheds. Farm equipment is made for use in the outdoors, but it still requires storage to avoid damage and the high cost of repair and replacement. This sometimes calls for the larger steel buildings. Housing everything from tractors and trucks to hay and livestock, the steel building is a boon to any farmstead.
