Im in a zone 5 area thats gotten to -22f, maybe 36" freeze depth, the
small premaid sheds with floor at menards, HD are made to rest on
about 15 concrete blocks off the ground. My neighbors and I did them
that way. For such a small buiding I dont see the need for what you
plan, plus its alot more work and money.



I've got my motorcycle in a shed supported on such blocks and it's as
solid as can be. Of course, I don't live where the wind is likely to
carry it off. Frankly, I got mine built with floor joists 12" on center
so it would carry the weight of the bike without complaint. The shed's
quite stout.
