Treated Wood Base Foundation
1. The wood base will be assembled out of 4 x 6
and 2 x 12 treated lumber, hardware (including
galvanized lag bolts/deck screws), and
fill material, such as gravel (none provided).
2. Assemble the 2 x 12 pieces in the dimensions
shown in the diagram below. The wood will
need to be trimmed to fit. Make certain that the
assembly is square and level. The diagonal
dimensions, from outside corner to outside corner,
should be 123 3 /
4
″ each. Also use a level to
ensure that the base is even. If needed, fill under
sections of the base to make sure it is level.

3. Assemble the 4 x 6 pieces on top of the
base you just assembled, as shown in the
cross section below. Fill the base with the
fill material up to the top of the 4 x 6's.
4. There are four Floor Plates to position on
the foundation; the Front Floor Plate (17),
the Rear Floor Plate (16),
and two Side Floor Plates (34).
(See Figure G on page 8.)
5. Match the length of each of the
four Floor Plates (16, 17, 34) with the appropriate
length of each edge of the base.
Place the Front Floor Plate (17) on
the side that the door will face.
NOTE: Position the four Floor Plates (16, 17, 34)
with their outer edges overhanging the outer edges
of the base, as shown below. Do not secure
the Floor Plates to the Base at this time.
