Transcript of Building 4x8 Shed Student Name 10 th grade Jordan Vocational High School Teacher Mr. Michael...
Floor Layout
We laid out two 8’ x 45” boards as the outline of our foundation.
Then we laid out 16” on center as our floor joists.
Cross bracing
We had 14 ½ ” length in between the floor joists and 5 ½ ” width. The cross braces were 14”.
Our Equation for Cross bracing
c sq.=a sq. + b sq.
c sq.=14 ½ sq. + 5 ½ sq.
c sq.=196
C= √196
c= 14”
Corners with Blocks
We used 92 5/8 ” studs with 12” blocks in between the studs to build the corners.
Making the Walls
We made 4’x8’ walls with five 92 5/8” studs on our front/back walls and four for our side walls.
Rafters and Spacers
We used four 39 ½ ” rafters for the outside of the shed with 10 ½ ” spacers and a 10’ ridge.
Outside Rafters
We used a total of 4 outside rafters at the same cut of 39 ½”. They are used as overhang of the roof.
Rafter Blocks
We cut blocks at 10 ½”, and a total of 10 blocks were used for soffet and facia bracing. This will leave a 12” overhang.
