Looking for ideas on how to run chimney pipe out a round roof (quonset) building

I am looking at installing a wood burning stove in my round roof or sometimes called a quonset building, the roof is round so i dont know how to seal up the hole around the pipe when i cut the hole. Has anyone seen this done or have any ideas on how this could be done to make sure its sealed and does not pour water in.

thanks in advance

thanks for the quick response, if i was close enough to the end walls i sure would do that but the closest end wall to where i need to install the stove would be close to 20' away.

 

Welcome to FHC. You'll like it here. We like dogs, beer and pics. A lot of great people here with knowledge to share.

 

I went through the wall on my Quonset hut. Where I put the stove if I went vertical I would have had a bit of a challenge trying support the pipe sticking that far up. I would run the pipe up as close as you can get it to the highest point of your building. Mine is 13' tall in the center. Some custom flashing and high temp silicone/roofing cement should do yah. Welcome aboard and I'd like to see some pictures of your set up when you get it done.

 

^^^This!

There are flexible storm collar available for purchase, these should help in this application also.

 

I have looked into the storm collars and they will most likely work especially since the curvature of my roof is more gradual than others ive seen. My building is not steel, its 40'x120'x20 to the peak with laminate rafters, plywood and a layer of tar paper, shingles, 2x3's and then 5 year old commercial 3/4" rib steel. If you look up Starwood Rafters, that is the company that built my rafters. I'm most likely over thinking this whole thing but i absolutely hate to cut holes into a new steel roof or any roof in general. I'm forced to locate this stove in the location its going in based off of interior divider walls.

Thanks Again
