LEVEL AND SQUARE FLOOR FRAME Before attaching floor decking, it is important to level and square the floor frame. A level and square floor frame is required to correctly construct your shed. BEGIN See page 7 for the preferred floor leveling method. Use level and check the frame is level before applying floor panels. Check for frame squareness by measuring diagonally across corners. If the measurements are the same, the frame is square. The diagonal measurement will be approximately 187-7/16" (476,1 cm). When the frame is level and square secure one side of frame to the 4x4 runners using (1) fastener at ends of each runner.
