PRO TIP
Starting nails in a board is much easier if the board is lying flat on a rigid surface than if you are trying
to hold it in position. Start the nails and pound them until they just break through the backside of the
band board.
• Nail the treated FLOOR BANDS to the seven 93” FLOOR JOISTS using two 16 penny galvanized
nails into each joist.
• After you nail all FLOOR JOISTS to the first FLOOR BAND, rotate the entire frame 180˚ and place
the first FLOOR BAND against the backstop.
• Nail the second FLOOR BAND to the FLOOR JOISTS using two nails into each joist.
4”x4” SKIDS
We attached our base to three 4x4 skids because we wanted to be able to move the shed with a forklift
to another location after the build. You don’t have to use the 4x4 skids shown on the pictures of this
guide. The skids where set perpendicular to the FLOOR JOISTS. We used 12 Z-MAX Galvanized 18-Gauge
Hurricane Ties to connect the FLOOR JOISTS to the skids.
Now that the floor frame is complete, it is time to place the first layer of plywood to create a complete
flat surface for your Floor-Base.
