Garden Shed Foundation?
Planning to put a 8'x10' shed in our backyard once the weather warms up.
Probably going to buy one of those pre-fab shed from a big box store.
Question is, what sort of foundation I need?
I have seen a lot of people build a shed foundation without digging and pouring a concrete below the frost line.
I.e. they just put few inch of gravel and paver stone on top, or even easier, use 8-10 concrete block and put a wood frame on top.
Are these kind of foundation okay in toronto with the cold weather?
I though most foundation needs to have footing below the frost line due to frost heaving?
