When building a storage shed in your backyard you should consider using a plan. Choosing to build your shed with no plan or a poor one will only cause problems. As you move through the construction process it would be wise to have a plan to follow. You will be able to use this plan as a reference to help keep you on course. This plan will outline the proper order in which to build your shed. It should give you detailed instructions with regards to the specific style you are building.
There are many different storage shed plans and designs to choose from. Some designs are simple in design and are therefore relatively easy to construct. The lean-to style shed is probably the easiest style of shed to build. Another style that is relatively easy to build is the pent roof style shed. Both of these shed designs have flat roofs. This make them easier to construct than other types of sheds. The pent roof design has a roof that consists of one plan. Its roof slopes in one direction. A lean-to shed is like a pent roof shed, but has the upper portion of its sloping roof attached to another structure.
More complex shed designs include the clerestory style shed and gambrel shed. The clerestory style shed has a row of windows in its roof. These windows are called clerestory windows. This shed design is great for use as place to work, as the windows allow sunlight to enter deep into the structure. It is also great as a place to store plants. The gambrel style shed has a roof shaped like the roof on a barn. It is a two-sided roof, with each side having two pieces and each piece having a different slope. The outer slope is steeper than the inner slope. This shed design is great for storage. The complexity of these designs, when compared to the pent roof and lean-to sheds, is primarily due to the type of roofs they use.
All of these styles have similarities in their design and generally follow the same construction process. The first part of the construction process is choosing the location. For example, if you are going to build a clerestory style shed, you want to locate it in an area where the sun can shine into its windows. Next you must consider what type of foundation you will use, then build it. Building the walls would usually follow. Of course the process of building the roof for your shed will depend on the shed design you choose.
Whatever style you pick, choosing a proven set of storage shed plans to guide you will save you time and money.
