SMARTSTORE WOODEN FLOOR
 The optional Smartstore kitset wooden floor is precut and
designed to be fitted into the shed after the shed is assembled.
 Assemble shed as per instructions and fit floor last.
(see page 12 for details).
CONCRETE SLAB FOR RAISED BASE PLATE SHED
To build a raised concrete slab for your shed to sit on, we recom-
mend the following:
 The raised slab size should be 15mm smaller than the base
size of the shed and at least 30mm above ground line.
 The slab should be 80mm thick in the middle and 100mm
thick around the edges.
 The slab should be laid on a solid or compacted base.
 Plastic sheeting under slab will prevent moisture coming
through from underneath.
 During construction, you may raise the bottom timber
plate to allow the wall cladding to protrude 20mm below
the bottom plate. This will stop water flowing between
the bottom plate and the concrete floor.
See note on page 7.

RAISED BASE PLATE OPTION
(For sheds placed on a raised concrete floor)
No doubt by now you will have decided what sort of base you are putting down.
Please read the section that applies to your situation.
If you choose to pour a concrete base you will need to decide whether you wish to raise the base plate of your shed.
This allows the cladding to protrude below the surface of the concrete and ensures a water tight pad.
See concrete pad specifications below
By choosing this option you will need to make the pad to the specification below.

STEP 1:
 Lay out 1 x Top Plate and 1 x Bottom Plate on a flat surface as shown
(corner cut outs to face outwards). Measurements between Top and
Bottom plates are critical to ensure wall panels fit together.
STEP 2:
 Place 1 x 1.810 wall sheet and 1 x 1/2 wall sheet on top of timber
plates, with sheets flush with each other.
 Rivet sheets together on overlaps as shown.
STEP 3:
 Nail wall sheets to the Top Plate at each end making
sure that the top of the sheets are flush with the top of
the Top Plate and the sides of the wall sheet overhang
the Top Plate by approx 13mm as shown.
 Check that the Top Plate is straight then nail along the
wall sheet to the Top Plate, two clouts per pan (see
fig. 1).
STEP 4:
 Nail the wall sheets to the Bottom Plate at each end ensuring each
side of wall sheets overhangs the end of Bottom Plate by 13mm.
Check that the distance between the Top and Bottom Plates is
correct. (As per diagram in step 1)
 Check that the Bottom Plate is straight then nail the wall sheets to
the Bottom Plate, two clouts per pan (see fig. 1).
Repeat with second side panel ensuring Top Plate is positioned in
the OPPOSITE direction to the first side panel, as shown.
