Be sure the day you select to install your building is dry and calm.
Do not attempt to assemble your building on a windy day. Be careful on wet or muddy ground.

your building. One person can position parts or panels while the other is able to handle the
fasteners and the tools.

These are some basic tools and materials you will need for the
construction of your building. Decide which method of anchoring and the type of foundation

Selecting and Preparing Your Site:
Before assembly, you will want to decide on
a location for your building. The best location is a level area with good drainage.
•Allow enough working space for ease of moving parts into position during assembly. Be sure there
will be enough space at entrance for doors to open fully and enough space around the building to
be able to fasten the panel screws from the outside.
•Before you begin the first steps in assembling your parts, a foundation should be constructed and
an anchoring system should be ready to use.
