I live in a typical suburb with typical zoning, if I were to build a
new detached garage, could I save money by having a gravel floor ?
The perimeter would be concrete of course.

It seems like it would be little different, functionally. Or am I

No significant cost savings, and increased chance of frost heave for the
poured footers and foundation stub walls, due to water ponding and
freezing against them. I'd skimp on the driveway, instead.
