Shed
So my project starting very soon is to build a tool shed to help fix some storage problems we have with such a tight garage (and massive mower.)
My back yard has a devilish slope at all locations, so I'm pretty much forced to have the shed supported well off the ground in the back. My current plan is to basically have the front even with the ground and the back anywhere from 2-6ft off the ground, supported by...
This is the first question I have... I've read that columns dug down should be fine, but I'm not sure how deep to dig since the slope obviously affects the typical frost line depth considerations. Is this a case where I want to dig something more like a footing into the hillside and bury it with a column coming out of the footing?
I was considering columns dug down 3-5 ft and sticking up 8" or so and then PT 6x6's up to whatever "level" the deck sits at.
Currently I am planning something between a 8x12 and 10x14 for a shed size, so its going to have some weight to it.
