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 170-9/16" (433,2 cm). When the frame is level and square, secure one side of frame to the 4x4 runners with one fastener at ends of each runner. Move to the opposite end of the frame. Secure the frame to 4x4 runners with (1) fastener at ends of each runner making sure the frame remains square (Fig. A). FINISH Once the floor frame is level and square fasten the frame to the 4x4 runners at each point the frame contacts the 4x4 runners. First, secure at ends with Fig.
