Site Preparation
A prefabricated floor frame kit cannot be installed prior to building construction. The area must be free of any content and leveled.
Generally, floor frame kits come in standard size. This is good to know when you measure the area.
A great advantage of prefabricated floor frame is that you can install it over any kind of substrate such as soil, gravel, sand or even grass.
Building Floor Frame Kit Installation
Installation of building floor frame kit is simple. In fact, it is easy installed using some fastening methods.
A floor frame kit has parts with synthetic and soft materials inside; others use screws to hold all the components together.
However, the best is to follow the installation instruction diagram.
Finishing
When your building floor frame kit is in place, your outdoor construction has in fact, a metal base, a metal support network, like a giant grill.
Therefore, before installing your finished floor you need a plane smooth surface. You can create this surface laying and screwing down 5/8-inch plywood sheets.
This plywood will serve as base for your finish floor.
