 This part of the build will cover the framing aspects.<\/p>\n

Short Wall 1<\/p>\n

Short Wall 2<\/p>\n

Front Wall<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/div>\n

Full Assembly<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/div>\n<\/p>\n

The first short wall consists of 2 x 2900mm (9′ 6″) lengths of 2″ x 4″ (50x100mm) pressure treated timber for the top and sole plates, then 6 x 2000mm (6′ 6 3\/4″) length of 2″x 4″ (50x100mm) for the studs.<\/p>\n

The studs are arranged such that the sheathing boards will overlap the the front edge of the shed by 12mm (1\/2″) and allow for a full width board to meet with another board at the 3rd stud from the front.<\/p>\n

Studs 4 and 5 are on 610mm (2′) centres from stud 3.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/div>\n<\/p>\n

I used the base of the shed as a flat surface to form up the frames and ensure squareness.<\/p>\n

Short wall 2 is a repeat of the steps for short wall 1.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/div>\n

To ensure the studs were all the same length I cut 4 of them at a time on my compound mitre saw.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/div>\n

The rear wall consists of 2 x 3600mm (11′ 9 3\/4″) lengths of 2″x 4″ (50x100mm) pressure treated timber for the top and sole plates, then 7 x 2000mm (6′ 6 3\/4″) length of 2″x 4″ (50x100mm) for the studs.<\/p>\n

The studs are arranged like the floor to allow a full sheet on either end with a narrower sheet in the middle.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/div>\n<\/p>\n

The front wall consists of 2 x 3600mm (11′ 9 3\/4″) lengths of 2″x 4″ (50x100mm) pressure treated timber for the top and sole plates and 6 x 2400mm (7′ 10 1\/2″) length studs.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/div>\n

There are 2 additional 2000mm (6′ 6 3\/4″) secondary jam studs for the door opening to support the 1250mm (4′ 1″) double lintel.<\/p>\n

There are also 610mm (2′) sill trimmers and lintels for the windows.<\/p>\n

The door jam studs are arranged to be 1220mm (4′) from the ends to allow for use of a full width sheet.<\/p>\n

The front and rear walls also have a second 3600mm (11′ 9 3\/4″) double top plate for securing the flat roof.<\/p>\n

I also made a frame for the roof, 3600mm (11′ 9 3\/4″) on all sides with 3 x 3500mm (11′ 6″) joists in between.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/div>\n<\/p>\n

However I ultimately took this apart again as it was going to be too heavy to lift onto the roof of the shed frame.<\/p>\n

Having completed all of the frames, the next job was to assemble them together, first the front wall and short wall 2.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/div>\n<\/p>\n

Next came short wall 1<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/div>\n<\/p>\n

and finally the rear wall.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/div>\n<\/p>\n
The above picture actually shows part of the roof as I forgot to take the intermediary picture.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n

Again all framing was completed using 90mm collated nails.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
