Do you have plans for a 12x16 shed? Perhaps your home is bursting at the seams, and you are looking for a way to add storage space. Maybe you have a special hobby that requires its own space in order to fully enjoy the activity. Or perhaps you work from home and want to create a unique office environment. Whatever your needs, a 12 x 16 shed can meet them.

Make It Your Own

Up until recently, sheds have received an unfair reputation as outdated or old fashioned. However, a number of modern shed designs have changed all that. In fact, sheds can be customized with any number of options. Here are just a few ways homeowners have found to add pizazz to their sheds:

� Windows and Doorways
� Porches
� Trims and Moldings
� Siding and Shingles

Some of the more popular shed designs on the market today include barn sheds, modern sheds and lean to sheds. In addition, nearly every shed can be made unique with finishing touches. Some homeowners have even modified shed plans so the building resembles the main home!

In addition to customizing the exterior a shed, the interior lends itself to any number of possibilities. For instance, sheds can be fitted with both electricity and plumbing. Can you imagine how great it would be to have a fully functional office where you can plug in your computer just steps from your front door?

Sheds offer solutions available to any range of budgets. That said, adding bells and whistles to enhance the look and functionality of a shed also adds to its price.

Shared Shed Components

It is important to remember to check local zoning ordinances prior to construction. These regulations provide important technical details like the minimum distance a shed can be erected from a property line. A little research in advance can save on time and money by ensuring the shed is in compliance.

Regardless of the design, sheds share a few basic components. One of those features is the foundation. A sturdy base provided by a foundation buffers the shed from uneven settling and protects against flooding.

A number of people build sheds to protect their expensive equipment, like lawn mowers and snow blowers. Keeping the rain off these tools is the job of the roof and only half the battle. A foundation creates a barrier between the wet earth and the shed floor, keeping water out.

Homeowners can elect to lay the foundation in any number of ways. Ultimately, the selection will depend on the soil in any one particular area as well as the available budget. A few common shed foundations include:

� Concrete Slab
� Concrete Pier
� Pre-cast Concrete Pier
� Rail Foundation

After the foundation is set, a floor made of wood joists and sheeting lends a finished look. The walls and roof are next. A good set of plans will provide clear instructions about the trusses and the angles involved to construct a sturdy roof. With quality plans for a 12x16 shed, you will be enjoying your new building in no time!
