I'm looking for the shops that would be normally located in a Transport C-47  Hanger. Example: Hydraulic, tire, machine/fabrication, supply, engine/prop. Also how would the shops be located in the hanger.

Here are some photos of the old AAF hangars at Lincoln AAF.  So are these Type TUH-1 hangars? If so, what were their dimensions?   There are some steel I beams still in the concrete footing.  The footprint for two of the hangars are still there even after the USAF used it as an AFB during the 50's and 60's. 
Walking off the existing footing for the hangars they are approximately 350' X 230' and that's a very rough estimate for the two hangar design.
 
There were four hangars at Lincoln AAF that had double doors on each end.
