New shed construction query
Hi all,
After waiting for ages to get a builder to turn up to start my new shed, he does a no show (I am not happy!!!!) so I have decided to get it up myself with some help from some mates and the good old forum.
Before I ask any queries, a little about the shed. It is 18m x 12m x 8m (6.3m @gutter), steel framed kit shed clad in colourbond. Portal frames are back to back 100 x 50 RHS stitch welded. Shed is going on to concrete piers which I poured last week and will have an independent wooden floor.
First question is regarding the anchoring of frames to the piers. I am using M16 chem set bolts to hold it down. I was going to install all bolts into piers first, then stand the frames up with the crane, brace them and bolt them down. Should I do it the other way and stand the frames up, position them brace and drill and then install chem sets?
I guess it all depends on how accurate the layout is and how accurately the company has made the shed.
Any thought on which method would be best?
TIA
