Has anyone used those ^^ or something like them?
I'll be building a small shed (DIY build, not prefab crap) later this year. Maybe 2.
I don't want large quanities of concrete - particularly not a solid base[1], so I thought about 4 concrete pads and span with timbers a la decking.
This keeps the shed floor dry and leaves a gap to store ladders underneath.
However, the Swift pads above don't even use concrete (apart from the top stone pads). Just a mesh filled with 10mm gravel.
Just wondered if they were likely to work or not. Otherwise I was thinking to set 1 ft cubed blocks of concrete into the ground at the corners with either a raised pad on top or a metal "leg" with timber bracket on top (I think I've seen something like this for decking).
How would you do it (with minimal concrete/digging)?
Cheers,
Tim
[1] I'm spending all my time getting rid of bloody concrete pads and bases in this garden.The old greenhouse (gone) had a base 3m x 2m x 20cm thick!
Similar for the old knackered shed.
Then misc pads about the sixe of a wooden bench seat. Why???
