When laying a concrete slab for your shed, it is
best practise to have a rebated edge to prevent
water ingress.
Rebated section is 1”high and inset 3”on all sides
from the overall slab base dimensions

described and illustrated on "COMPONENTS
PACKING LIST" pages.
SITE PREPARATION
• The site for the shed must be level. An uneven
surface may result in misalignment of parts.
• The shed shall be erected on top of a
reinforced concrete slab and anchored
down appropriately illustrated on“FINAL
CONSTRUCTION”page.
SAFETY NOTES
• Some parts may have sharp edges. It is advisable
to wear gloves when handling these items and
safety glasses if drilling holes. Sensible shoes are
highly recommended.
• Do not erect your shed in windy conditions.
• Ensure that the shed is securely anchored to a
solid foundation immediately after construction
is completed.
• It is highly recommended to erect the shed with
two or more people.
• Do not sit, stand or walk on the roof of your
shed.
• The shed shall be erected on top of a reinforced
concrete slab and anchored down appropriately

SNAPTiTE ASSEMBLY GUIDE
The Snaptite Assembly System locks end channels to all roof and wall sheets without the need for
tools and fasteners.
To assemble each panel, the perimeter channels are secured to the top and bottom of each panel.
Gently tap the channel over the SNAPTiTE lugs on the sheet, working along the sheet.
Each perimeter channel must nish ush with the edges of the sheets. Simply tap the channel along
the sheets until each end is neatly ush. If you need to remove channels from the panels, slide it o
from the side.
Channel locks the shed panel into
position without the need for screws!
FASTENING SYMBOLS
Secure channel to sheeting by SNAPTiTE
fastening method.
Join components together with one
screw at this location only, as some
channels have extra holes that are not
required for this model of shed.
Do not join components together at
this location yet, as the screws may
obstruct further assembly of the other
components.
Join components together by pre-drill-
ing the holes rst. Use one component as
template to mark where the holes are and
drill with a 1/8”drill bit.
1/8”pop rivet
3/16”nut and bolt set.

Guide on Joining Spliced Channels
The text marked on all parts must be shown on the same side as each other
Step 1.
Position the channels and the
CSJ joiner so the centre of
the CSJ is in line with the end
of each channel to be joiner
together.
Step 2.
Join the rst channel to the CSJ
by inserting the centre of the
CSJ, on an angle, to the end of
the channel where the JOIN>>
text is marked.
Push down one side of the CSJ
until you hear a‘click’.
Step 3.
Join the second channel to the
CSJ by positioning the <<JOIN
of the channel at the centre of
the CSJ, on an angle. Push the
CSJ into the channel until you
hear a‘click’.
Finished Channel.
The joined channels should
now look like the picture with
the CSJ positioned equally
inside of the joined channels.
Drill out holes with 1/8”drill
bit in CSJ to match the holes
in channel. Drilling of screws
on the joined channels is being
done after sheets are locked on
the spliced channels.

Guide on Joining a Spliced Ridge Beam
Follow these three steps to assemble a ridge beam.
Step 1.
Place two ridge beams as
shown and push them together.
Slide the cap of one under the
other.
NOTE.
There is a 2”overlap of the ridge
caps when the beams are in posi-
tion.
Step 2.
Use the ZARSP to connect at
the centre of the two ridge
beams. Be sure it is pushed in
fully.
Step 3.
Turn over the ridge beam.
Measure 9.84”from the middle
along the centre of one ridge
beam, mark spacings of 2”. Fasten
with a Tek screw at each marking.
Repeat to the other side of the
ridge beam assembly.
TIP: Predrilling each hole with
the 1/8”drill bit makes it easier to
fasten.

To make the total span we must now join sections of sheeting together for the roof and wall.
Refer to the panel construction section of this instruction set for further details and ensure that the
assembled panels are not joined together with pre-punched holes incorrectly positioned.
The overall length of each panel is the same as the ridge beam.
Trim the channels by ²¹/₃₂”to allow the
sheets to be overlapped.
Overlap the panels and fasten as
shown.

It is not critical that the overall dimension is exact but try and make sure the length is within ¹³/₆₄”.
