Yeah I guess it would be worth considering if you had decent slope. Although it would limit you to only having one side of the shed for access?

Large groove on sill base takes a fascia board, behind which the flashing turns down over the external cladding. The cladding should not extend into the groove as this creates a dam in the flashing.

Hi Rusty
Thanks for the advice, much appreciated. I will revise the cross section drawing to show flashing and fascia.
Cheers

Hi,
I like your shed design.
50mm step just ensure you allow for termite visual barrier and 75.mm is required, Check what is stated on your certified plans. Also check the new standard in under floor slab treatment for termites. Spraying is out and its now done with plastic membrane (not many do it). Have just gone through this in the NT. You may also need a part B barrier around the shed which is 300 mm wide.
Installing timber on steel frame you will need sarking and a lot will depend on what you will do with the shed later as to which membrane you use.
What do you mean hardiplank for trim board rather than timber? you thinking of cladding in hardiplank?
Fixings - if your near Sandgate I dare say you will need to fix with stainless steel screws if within 2k of the water.
Anyway looking forward to the build.
Brian

Hi Brian
Thanks for the advice. The council advised I would only require a 75mm visual barrier. But I guess I will see what they come up with when I submit the final building application.
I will be sheeting the inside and it will only ever be used as workshop or garage. So what sort of sarking do you suggest. Also does a water proof membrane normaly be installed between the bottom plate and the slap?
I am going to install a 300mm trim board around the bottom rather than run the cladding to the ground. This way if there is ever any water damage ect it is much easier to change the trim board rather than the cladding. I was going to use 20mm fibro rather than timber.
Shed is in Rockhampton, so well away from the coast. Sandgate sawmill will provide the cladding, window sills and jambs.
Cheers

Window Frame Section2.pdfTake 2 of the window section.
Looks like the framing I will be using is 75mm so it all lines up nicely with the fascia board.
I'm guessing framing used to be 3" (76.3mm) which is what the sill would be designed for?

Engineering has been commissioned, hopefully have the plans in a few weeks. Then one more round through the council and away we go. The planning has been a long road but starting to see the end now.

Update, things have been a bit steady but have submitted the final council application so hopefully get the thumbs up late this week or next week.

Hi,
Just wondering you still doing a steel frame or you going timber. Looking forward to seeing your build. With the timber cladding it would be a great investment to paint both sides of the board and ensure every joint is painted before final fix.
Sandgate saw mill I used to use them when I was living there near 40 years ago, I thought they would have been pushed out by now.

Hi Brian,
Yep still using steel stud frame. I was intending to paint the tongue and groove and end grain before fixing but wasn’t going to paint the back side completely. Is there a reason for doing this? I will place a moisture barrier between the steel and timber.
Yeah the sawmill seems to be in quite a residential area, I visited there earlier in the year and was surprised.
Hopefully have council approval next week and I can start on the foundation.
Cheers

Update
Council approval received.
Have cleared the site ready for work on the foundation to begin. Hopefully the old garden shed slab doesn't put up too much of a fight.
