Prior to beginning construction, the area selected for the shed location must be level and cleared of obstructions.

Separate all lumber, hardware, etc. into individual stacks of like items.

Unfold each frame, setting aside two frames to be used as end walls. From 1" x 4" pine boards, cut metal gusset plates 6" long;

• 20 for a 10' building
• 24 for a 12' building
• 28 for a 14' building
• 32 for a 16' building

Apply gusset plates on each side of the top and bottom fold locations. Use four 8d nails on each gusset plate. Frames used as end walls require only one gusset plate at the top and bottom on the side opposite the metal plates. See Figure 1.

Using one frame selected as an end wall, measure and mark stud locations according to dimensions shown in Figure 2. Place the proper length 2" x 4" stud at those locations. Mark required length and angles. Cut each 2" x 4" to fit. Toe nail studs into place using (2) 8d nails top and bottom. See Figure 2. Lumber listed as nominal sizes.

Using the remaining end wall frame, repeat step 4, using Figure 3 as a guide.
NOTE: In order to keep moisture from wicking into the siding, keep the bottom of the siding 1" above the bottom of the treated bottom frame member.

Cut one 4'x8' sheet of siding in half, leaving two pieces 24" wide by 96" long. Place one cut piece face down, side by side next to two full 4'x8' sheets. Place cut edge at the corner as shown in Figure 4. Place the back wall frame on top and trace roof line. Remove frame and cut lines. Properly place siding on the frame and nail in place, using 6d nails every 8" on center. See Figure 4.

Cut the 24"x96" piece remaining into two pieces 12"x96". Place these pieces and two full 4'x8' sheets of siding face down, side by side, as shown in Figure 5. Place the front wall frame on top of the siding, trace the roof line and door opening on the siding and remove frame. Prior to cutting lines representing the door, extend door outline 1" in all directions. Cut "new" lines. Mark the two cut-outpieces-" door"-and set aside to be used later. Properly place siding on frame and nail down using 6d nails every 8" on center. See Figure 5.
NOTE: Some siding pieces will need to be butted together, so a clean straight cut is necessary.
NOTE: In order to keep moisture from wicking into the siding, keep the bottom of the siding 1" above the bottom of the treated bottom frame member.

From two treated 2" x 4", cut two rim joists:

• 119" for a 10' building
• 143" for a 12' building
• 167" for a 14' building
• 191" for a 16' building

Place the rim joists 10' apart in the area where the shed is to be set. Stand the front and back walls up at the proper ends of the rim joists. Nail rim joists to the end walls using 10d nails. Temporarily brace both ends. See Figure 6. Stand the remaining frames up:

• 4 for a 10' building
• 5 for a 12' building
• 6 for a 14' building
• 7 for a 16' building

Nail to rim joists at dimensions shown. Place a temporary brace across the roof frame members.

At base of building, measure diagonally. Adjust building until AC=BD. Building is then square. See Figure 7.

From the remaining treated 2"x 4" cut four 21-1/4" floor supports and the required amount of 22-1/2" floor supports:

• 6 for a 10' building
• 10 for a 14' building
• 8 for a 12' building
• 12 for a 16' building

Install as shown in Figure 8, using 10d nails.

NOTE: In order to prevent wicking of moisture into the siding, keep the bottom of the siding 1" above the bottom of the treated bottom frame member. If T-1-11 siding is used, place cut edges at corners. Make certain end walls and frames are plumb, (vertically level) and then apply siding using 6d nails. Siding must be notched at the top to fit around the E-Z frame overhang.
