roundhouse
Circular locomotive garage
A roundhouse is a circular building where locomotives are stored and serviced, with tracks radiating from a central turntable.
The shape extends to other circular or curved structures.
A roundhouse punch or kick swings wide in a sweeping arc rather than traveling straight: He threw a roundhouse that caught me on the jaw.
In baseball, a roundhouse curve breaks dramatically.
