12 x 16 garden shed plans

by Bryan
(Milfod, MI, USA)

I've never built a shed or anything like this before, but I have a background in lumber and building supplies.
The build went well, but there are 2 things I'd like to see improved on the plans, same issue, but on two different areas, the siding, and osb for the roof, on the plans it doesn't specifically say to terminate the sheets on the studs / rafters. I goofed on both, but I corrected by adding extra studs, and rafters.
Otherwise, great building experience. Thank you.
I did a floating floor on blocks, with 2x8 treated, 3/4" TG advantech, 16" OC, and yes, I did align the sub floor on the joists.

12x16 Garden Shed Pictures
by: John

Hello Bryan,

Thank you for submitting pictures of your 12x16 garden shed! Looks fantastic and you did an awesome job building it.

I appreciate the feedback on the plans, especially about the comment on the terminating the sheets on the studs/rafters. I will definitely try to make this clearer in the plans.

Other than the problems you had with the sheeting installation, I am glad everything went well with using my shed plans!
