All previous outside structures have built, three sheds one cabin,
large wooden deck etc. we have dug down and used posts (stubs of telephone poles and similar. Now wondering if possible to build a shed on those concrete blocks that just about sit on the surface. The blocks probably weigh 50 lbs each, and are shaped on top to fit four by four post or cross member. They are sometimes used here to support a deck or patio. Considering a simple wood frame shed approx. 12 by 20 sitting on nine of those blocks, about six inches to one foot off the ground, with possibly an insulation pad below each block to slow freezing and heaving of the ground. Advice/comment welcomed. |
