Exactly. This shed was built from experience since I did the same build 12 years ago at my old house and it's 100% fine.

Thanks for the kind words.

Between 7am and 11pm Monday through Friday. If you are not home at time of delivery, you forfeit your shed.

ou simplified it for the total beginner. It really was an outstanding video. Thank you.

THE SHAME!!! lol

I couldn’t believe he didn’t have on safety sandals either. What is KZfaq coming to?!?!

I don't want free plans, I want safety sandals

My God. Just let people be free. Who cares. It's his feet not yours.

@tonedeaf5581 obviously not a long-time viewer of this channel. The sandal comments are a joke. Brad's legendary "safety sandals," "Jesus sandals," or whatever else we want to call them are his calling card signature "egg plants" in nearly every video. Of course, there's always the chance you knew this & made you ridiculous comment for another reason, but either way, congratulations, you're definitely getting in his next viewers comment video.

i was gonna say no treated wood?

@@hobbiesunlimited1 I was gonna say no flashing?

Yup all moved in but shop time is limited since we've already had a basement flood.

@@DIYBuilds Ouch! 😬

Yes you are correct. There were many cost cutting things I did on this vs a real house. It will be just fine though as I had zero issues when I built a similar shed 10 years ago.

Very nice! That's practically a "TINY HOME"😅

They recently changed it to anything 160 Sq ft and under.

@@DIYBuilds 120 square feet for California :/ if it's under 120sq feet even adding a simple light fixture would warrant permits that are 1k+

Came here to say that. Screws have great tinsel strength but no shear strength. That's why nails are predominant in framing. Outdoor rated screws have some shear strength but not comparable to nails.

Can't tell what he used specifically, but they do make structurally rated screws. Expensive, but convenient.

If you have an issue with sheer strength of your fasters, your shed really has bigger issues.

It's a shed, what shear pressure? Snow weight? Lmao lmao. Your right, but I don't think it applies to a shed as much as a house...

This is a single story shed, framers typically build houses 😂😂 We get it though, you’re a smart cookie.

It's a preference thing for me.

I've always understood it not as a preference and more that screws for framing are simply wrong, but I'm not a framer so I only figure its correct since nails have alot more flexibility and don't shear off or snap like s screw does so nails will allow some movement. I also understand this is just a shed but why wasn't a house wrap like Tyvex (understandably less important) or a roofing tar paper used?

You can use those products but I know them to be unecessary as I built the same shed 10 years ago with zero wood damage / leaks.

You don’t have to plenty of ppl use concrete blocks on the ground and build 2x6 or 2x8 frame to sit on. He did tho and did build on the slab hence the bolts he put in

Yes it's not necessary.

go to my website diybuilds.ca it's under 'plans'

Yes because the shed is 10 by 16 with 8 foot high walls. Studs 16" on center. The "plans" are a guide to go along with the video.

Yes

The concrete sticks out of the ground 4 inches so basically is never wet. The shed isn't sealed or insulated so plenty of airflow to dry out anything that does get wet

Search for single pane on homedepot or download my free cost breakdown spreadsheet.

Around 4000 canadian plus 2000 for slab. Cost break down with links to everything can be found on my website under plans.

Nope. If it was a house for sure. But its an uninsulated shed so it will be just fine. Vinyl does a great job on its own.

@@DIYBuilds That's what I figured. In my part of TX vinyl siding is rare as it's not approved by code in most city's. Here you have to have 60-75% masonry. And you guys do that goofy plastic on the inside of the building... We dry to the inside so our vapor barrier is on the outside not the inside. Seen many restaurants rot out because they followed the plans from a northern architect. I have an 18x9 slab that needs a shed on it. Come on down here and enjoy the 104 temps. :) If I do build one it'll be stick framed and then sheathed in steel.

Those things are optional. I know because I built the same shed 10 years ago and has zero water damage. As for the concrete yes I did blame them because they made the corner with the conduit in it 2 inches higher than the other 3 corners throwing everything off.

@@DIYBuilds I look at it as if I'm going to spend all that money to build it, I might as well do it right the first time that way im not dealing with headaches later on. I live in the northern area (snow, floods etc.) where I seen people build shit and within a few years it's all rotten and falling apart because they didn't properly waterproof it.

Not necessary for a shed. Do as you please.

No drip edge either?

Again add it youvwant but I had vuilt the same shed 10 years ago and 0 issues

You go through putting the starter strip down, but it's backwards. The starter strip should have been put down closest to the edge, not up by the ridge line. That way it will keep the first true row of shingles glued down at the edge. @@DIYBuilds

Ya I think your correct.

It's only a 36" opening. Add them if you want. But it will be just fine with the double top plate.

It's a shed. It doesn't have house wrap or eavs troughs or facia or insulation either. Add as many elements as you want but at the end of the day this method is tried and true over 25 years to not fail other than replacing the shingles after there designed lifetime.

@@DIYBuilds so costs are cut due to sheds not subject to having a building code. Is this correct? What part of the country is this project? Curious.

You're correct. There is no building code for sheds.

Nope. Add it if you'd like.

Yeah. Me too. Also no sealant tape around doors and windows. Fear this shed is going to have moisture issues. Especially after such great work on rest of shed. Saving a few bucks won’t pan out in the long run.

In 5 to 10 years this shed will need some plywood replaced, roofing repairs and probably some frame repairs. Water damage will be the cause. A simple moisture barrier would have extended the life of this shed an extra 15 to 25 years. Apart from those, shed has great workmanship and looks amazing.

​@@overyourheadtampa I AGREE, COUPLE HOURS AN D EXTENT THE LIVE COUPLE DECADES. CHEERS.

I made the same shed 15 years ago and has had zero issues, so I know my techniques are good for this application.

You can and I would if it were a house.

Wouldn't hurt but in my experience it's not necessary. So long as you lay the shingles correctly and replace them in 20 years or when they go bad.

And yet the exact same shed I built 10 years ago has yet to fall down or develop a leak.

did the pad at my old house but we were having a side walk and large patio poured at the same time. also my concrete guy could get the 3 jobs done for less than i could get materials for so it was a no brainer to have done for me

Huh?

go to my website and dont click on ads, click on plans then project plans and download the pdf... its not alot seeing as the plans would vary between your exact needs / size and the video should be a 99% guide.

I miss spoke. The one corner of concrete was high, causing the issues that I didn't notice until putting on the roof.

Yes. Google it.

They are 2 2x6x10 but I think it's 37" but it needs to be measured in place to make sure it's correct.

Ok.

Nothing was wrong since it works as a shed without fail, but there are different ways to do everything.

Doesn't need to be with gasket.

@@DIYBuilds I use both :) Just to be on the safe side.

Base plates should be PT. Termites love yellow wood but in your area they may not be a threat so the foam strips will be enough since it's just to prevent water on ground contact.

Yep, no termites here.
