centersof4x4's.
• 3" Screws angled into 4x4.
• (2) at each point frame
•and 4x4 touch.
12"
(30,5 cm)
12"
(30,5 cm)
• Level under 4x4 runners only.
• Locate leveling material 12" from ends of runners and no more than 48" apart.
• Asphalt shingles should be used between 4x4 runners and blocks or treated lumber. Never use
shingles in direct contact with ground.
• For best results and aiding in water drainage use gravel under each concrete block.

CONCRETE FOUNDATION
Your kit contains all materials to construct a wooden oor. If you choose to install your kit
on a concrete slab refer to the diagram below.
• A treated 2 x 4" (5,1 x 10,2 cm) sill plate is required when installing your shed on concrete. Hint:Usetreatedlumberinyourkitor
purchasefulllengthtreatedlumber.
• Use a high quality exterior grade caulk beneath all sill plates.
• Fasten 2 x 4" (5,1 x 10,2 cm) sill plates to slab using approved concrete anchors (fastenersnotincluded).
• Check local code for concrete foundation requirements.
NOTES
Allow new concrete slabs to cure for at least seven (7) days.

LEVEL AND SQUARE FLOOR FRAME
Before attaching oor decking, it is important to level and square the oor frame.
A level and square oor frame is required to correctly construct your shed.
BEGIN

1
Use level and check the frame is level before applying oor panels.
Check for frame squareness by measuring diagonally across corners. If the measurements are the
same, the frame is square. The diagonal measurement will be approximately 187-7/16" (476,1 cm).
When the frame is level and square secure one side of frame to the 4x4 runners using one fastener at
ends of each runner. Move to the opposite end of the frame. Secure the frame to 4x4 runners with one
fastener at ends of each runner making sure the frame remains square (Fig.A).
Once the oor frame is level and square fasten the frame to the 4x4 runners at each point the frame
contacts the 4x4 runners.
See page 7 for the preferred oor leveling method.

at ends with
onefastener.
