How To Build A Wooden Storage Shed Floor Video

l thought u would need to attach all the floor joists to the runners underneath the floor ?

the fuck is a tuba fours?

How far to space skids for a 12’ wide building

Drill pilot holes and screw all of that in? There much better, quicker and cheaper ways of doing this. Galvanised ring shank nails will more than do the trick

How come you didn't run the ply perpendicular to the joists?

How do you insulate the floor?

The Epoch times is a lousy way to start a video , don't need to be reminded of the ignorance at every turn these days .

How far apart does the skids need to be

You should compact the soil & use block on the gravel.
That what I did with a 16' X 24' shed.

Pour a concrete pad and box in the base. I know it's a pain, but every shed without one has animals living underneath.

No one ever talks about vapor barriers , should their be one under plywood or maybe under the gravel ?
I read some where you only need to if the interior of the structure is heated ,( climate controlled ) ? Anyone,
Im not sure ?

I purchased your instructions. How can you connect two 4x4x8 together for a 14x16 foot shed?

Thanks. Very helpful Video

Is it safe to use 2x4 floor joist if the width is less than 8 feet?

volume to low

volume to low

My dad left behind a storage shed. He passed away in 2004. Im 30 and only starting to get into woodworking now. The shed hes built is really poor but its what i have for a woodshop with all the basic tools there. Its poor because the roof was seriously sagging years ago and we had to get that fixed by a friend. Too many crevices that arent flush allowing all sorts of bugs to crawl in and wasps to make small nests, spiders to make cobwebs. The flooring is built with like a thin 3/8 of an inch osb board which is shoddy. it has broken through near the doorway causing a large hole because its not strong enough to support a normal person and also because it has eroded from the weather. The hole had been left unattended. Only until a large rat made its way in the shed with traces of droppings did we get it patched up (poorly though). Also he did not set the shed on top of a large gravel bed which will allow moisture to wick up from the dirt and rot the bottom wood overtime lasting only 10-20 years from what i heard. He only leveled it on some concrete piers. The doorway scrapes on the concrete even though the door is level. And the gap is not flush on the head of the door or the sides. With my new found hobby in woodworking i really am eager to fix my dads mistakes. and right now im trying to figure out how to reinforce the flooring. Im reading books and watching tutorials on it. I really want to do this.

Thank you for the great video! Have a question about the tie down. I could not tell in the video the tiedown you are using. What kind of tie down would you recommend to hold the base down? Thank you.

What is the reason for using skids? Why not put the floor joists right on the cement blocks?

I hate the fact that people used this mans compliment and comment section to ADVERTISE SHED COMPANIES then turn around and lie about it. Jus sayin.

You should use blocking between the floor joist no matter how wide the shed or building you build. Once you put wait on the floor the joist will rack and the floor will sag.

Carpenter newbie here, it matters what direction the plywood goes??

great! that's what I am using. 2x6 pressure treated lumber on two 4x6 x16 skids.

if you have a 10×16 foot wide shed and use 2x6 construction how many skids would you need. I was going to use 3 4x4 pressure treated lumber but can only find 6x6

Does anyone know the weight of a shed 10x16 without comp roof? I am doing a metal roof.

use shingles under blocks not wedges

I would like to build a 20x20 shed, but the length of lumber locally is only 16ft. how can i build a well-built floor without lumber this long?

You are running plywood the wrong direction

nice videos but could use more higher volume on sound .

Thank you for the time and effort to post.
