Most metal sheds, or storage buildings, are made of galvanized steel due to that material's resistance to rust. Essentially four walls and a roof, such a shed needs a solid, level base to sit on in order to be as sturdy as possible, but that doesn't mean you have to pour a concrete slab or footings.
Most metal sheds, or storage buildings, are made of galvanized steel due to that material's resistance to rust. Essentially four walls and a roof, such a shed needs a solid, level base to sit on in order to be as sturdy as possible, but that doesn't mean you have to pour a concrete slab or footings. A galvanized steel shed isn't as heavy as other structures and can be placed directly on ground that is compacted undisturbed soil. If, however, a galvanized steel shed doesn't come with a floor frame, then using gravel is a big help when leveling the area and raising the shed's flooring to the level of the shed door's threshold. In most cases, gravel is not only an acceptable solution, but a preferred one, according to Best in Backyards. Further, it drains better than a flat, concrete pad, reports Site Prep. If your shed comes with a floor frame, then install that floor frame as the shed's instructions describe, and lay wood boards on top of the floor frame. The boards will be the shed's flooring.
