BUILDING A CONCRETE SLAB FLOOR
• Priortotosettinguptheboxingforyourconcreteooryouwillneedtomarkouttheareato

• Theconcretebaseshouldbe100mmthickaroundtheoutside,80mminthemiddleandthetopof
theslabshouldbeatleast50mmabovethegroundlinetoavoidwaterrunningintoyourshed.
• Setuptimberboxingto2380mmx1980mm(insidemeasurementoftheboxing)This is 20mm
smaller than the external measurement of the shed framewhichallowsa10mmgapbetween
theoverhangingcladdingandtheconcreteslabonallfoursidesoftheshed.
• Ifyouwish,placesomeplasticsheetingunderneaththe
 concretetostopmoisturecomingthroughtheoor.
• Now is the time to place any steel reinforcing or mesh.
IMPORTANT - SHAPING THE FLOOR AT THE DOORWAY
Toallowthewatertorunawayfromtherollerdoorsealatthefrontoftheshed,ndthecentreof
the front and measure 900mm each way. This is the position of the 1800mm door and where you
willslopetheconcreteforwaterruno󰀨.
Whenyouhavepouredyourconcrete,startingfrom100mmbackfromthefront,shapetheconcrete
sothatitslopesdown20mmbelowtheboxingatthefront.
