FLOOR LEVELING OPTIONS
There are multiple ways to level your oor frame. Our recommended leveling method is shown below.
Leveling materials are not included in this kit.
PREFERRED METHOD - 4x4 TREATED RUNNERS
6"
(15,2 cm)
Measurements to
centers of 4x4's.
• 3" Screw angled into 4x4.
• (2) at each point frame and 4x4 touch.
4x4 Runners
(not included).
• 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.
LEVELING METHODS
• If you are building your shed on a concrete foundation see the following page.

Hint: Use treated lumber in your kit (you will have to cut to t).
• Use a high quality exterior grade caulk beneath all sill plates.
• Fasten 2 x 4" (5 ,1x 10.2 cm) sill plates to slab using approved concrete anchors (fasteners not included).
• Check local code for concrete foundation requirements.

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 77-3/16" (196,1 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. At 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 at each point where the frame contacts
the 4x4 runners.
See page 6 for the preferred  oor leveling method.
First, secure at ends with
one fastener.
Second, secure at ends
with one fastener.

Move to the opposite end. Using the long edge of the panel as a lever move the panel side-to-side until the

• The oor may be used as a stable work surface for wall construction.
• Organize your assembly procedure during the build process
