Considering this video implied you would be parking riding lawn mowers, 4 wheelers etc, I would have preferred Joist Hangers with a a beam supported down the center to re enforce the floor, plus notched 4x4 so the floor system can rest in it. But that does cost extra money and I'm sure they would gladly do it. Customer have to be aware to ask for things like that. With all that being said. Great Build!

Yea I kept waiting to see some notched 4x4s put on to support the joists and it never happened. Not only asking a lot of the fasteners in holding, but the wood too. With vibration and pressure, eventually those fastener holes may widen out just from the high PSI on the wood at the contact points. Notching boards and 4x4 not only spreads the PSI out, but good compressing the entire joist or 4x4 takes a ton (probably literally tons) more force than shearing those lags or tearing out the board. Underbuilt and easily avoided, especially when you could pre-fab/notch the ends of those 4x4s at your shop too.

For cutting out a window opening, it's not need. The opening will be covered by the window and silicon caulk. No one will ever see it. The reciprocating saw is much quicker and safer especially with new employees. Even a trim router can get away from you and take out a finger or hand real quick.

The shed foundation needs to rest on top of the 4x4 posts. Mounting those 2x6 boards to the side of the posts is not going to be stable long term. Wood shrinks and expands. The fasteners eventually wobble out the holes and the weight of the shed causes the 2x6s to more. The only to to stop that is for the 4x4 post being notched on one side so the 2x6s actually rests on the posts.

They do the walls and stuff at their own place with jigs, fixtures and good machines I recon so they can probably produce 10 walls before you are even finished with the detailed planning and buying the woods =) .. So it is totally possible they sell this total package at a price that it is not worth doing it by yourself.. Depending on what you make at your job as well I guess.

Notice how nothing is resting ON the posts, but has the entire structure simply nailed to the side of the post. Don't jump for joy in there, or it will probably fall apart. The rest may be fine, but the deck it's built on is pretty low strength construction. My advice is for the builder to check out some videos on deck construction to learn how to get started on the right foot. From there, it looks pretty good.

Agreed. Even though it's just a storage shed, people tend to pack them with all sorts of stuff (hence the need for the second shed at this location). 1) dig proper footings (54" frost line in this region). 2) notch your posts 3) consult the joist span tables for 2x6 lumber by wood species (@ 16" centers, 2x6 max span for southern pine is 9' (this floor will bounce and eventually sag). 4) at least lay down some ground cloth under the structure, but preferably remove grass, lay ground cloth and cover with gravel.

How many toughblocks to support a shed that size? I only ever saw them at the corners, and along one length but not the other, in the video.

I am curious as I am going to be putting up a shed foundation similar to this soon and might consider them as an option.
@Buildtuff
@Buildtuff 11 күн бұрын
There are a couple ways you can go about this. Either placing foundations on the joists themselves and supporting them in line with the allowable spans. Or you can use load bearing end joists and then run the joists across. You might want to consider using joist hangers in this process as you can then significantly cut down on the number of blocks needed. Chris Hume made a great video for us demonstrating this exact layout for his backyard office build: kzbin.info/www/bejne/aIiyenyXga19Z9ksi=vuFGFszopbEpTa7o

Good question. Beau has used duckbill earth anchors in opposite corners that attach to the subframe and keep it tied down in extreme weather events. You can always use more heavy duty anchors and use more of them for reassurance such as these: www.amazon.com/dp/B0CJY5SCCR They're fairly cheap and easy to install, so using 6 or 8 throughout the subframe would go a long way to making sure the shed resists uplift in high winds.

Getting back to those small lag bolts in 4x4 integrity, I just think something a bit heavier should be used for the highest degree of strength. I prefer round concrete pads myself.

Guy is running what seems to be a successful business and even he knows it's not about the brand of tool, it's the operator using the tools. Looks like he capitalized off of learning to build a shed in high-school shop class and immediately got into the shed building business with his buddies as soon as they graduated. Smart kid. Only thing is, I would've tampered, aggregated, and added additional tough blocks throughout the middle section of the subfloor system, especially being that it only appears to framed with 2x6s and they can only span so much before needing support. Personally, I would've framed the subfloor with 2x10 boards shed or not with additional foundation supports throughout the middle. That's just me though. Or I would've went with pouring a slab all together depending on my mood.

They left out a major step in the Pythagoras theorem....You have to find the square root of C. That's how 3, 4, 5 works or any other set of numbers. So you 3 square = 9 + 4 squared = 16 which equals 25 but it's not squared like the formula....it's the square root of 25 which is 5.

What is the shear strength of the lag screws you used to secure the base frame to the 4x4s?
@Buildtuff
@Buildtuff 28 күн бұрын
Generally, a 3/8-inch lag screw made from a common steel grade can have a shear strength in the range of approximately 3,000 to 4,000 pounds. So they're surprisingly strong. Once you use multiple lags then this ensures the load rating will be more than enough for the shed's weight. For larger sheds though it's common to notch the posts and have the joists sat on the notched section. This is good practice regardless, and we have many videos on our channel demonstrating this.

I have a couple of thoughts on how to improve this product. One after you have built the deck frame why not cement four to six post in the ground on the inside of the frame to anchor the structure? You can still do everything the same and it’s not much more work for a superior anchor. Number two your trusses are ugly. Why not use a joint that will keep it all flush and flat over just nailing a 2X4 across the truss? Small structure it would not take much effort and would look a lot better. Can be done with a domino joiner. Just a couple of things I would do. I can tell you take pride in your work and the structure looks good.

Posts should be notched so the load is not shearing the fixings

3/8 lag screws have a sheer strength of between 3000-4000 lbs each. Once you use 3 of them in one corner then you're providing an immense amount of support. Saying that, it's a good idea to notch the posts.

Lowe's sell a variety of sheds, but you won't get one that's tailored to your needs. Pre-fab sheds still need assembling with a foundation in place and often are made from lower quality materials. They can still be good value for money, but all in all Beau offer a custom service and you don't have to worry at all about construction.

Bit of a risk to have the full weight of the walls, roof and contents hanging on the shear strength of lag bolts but hey, no joist hangers either so I guess all good
@Buildtuff
@Buildtuff Ай бұрын
For a 3/8-inch lag screw in wood, the shear strength is typically around 1,200 to 1,400 pounds per screw in softwoods, but this can vary based on wood density. So once 3 are used, this load bearing capacity is more than enough. Saying that, it can't hurt to notch the posts and have the outer frame resting vertically on the post itself. For smaller sheds like this, lag screws are used but for larger sheds then it's typical to notch the posts.

@@Buildtuff If you notch the posts you are literally turning them into a 2x3. I also Mentioned the rainfall elsewhere. But that will have an effect on the Shed long term. You guys do a nice job and it's a nice product.

Good shout, joist hangers would be a great addition to the subframe. In fact we have a very similar project for a backyard shed which uses joist hangers for the subframe: kzbin.info/www/bejne/aIiyenyXga19Z9ksi=w7rQFYszYdijCmsy

OSB is not only strong and durable but also offers good moisture resistance, making it excellent for structural applications like subflooring and sheathing. Its engineered composition ensures uniformity and strength, essential for supporting loads and withstanding stress. Plus, if you're concerned about aesthetics, OSB serves as a solid base onto which you can install more decorative surface materials.
