Moving a small cedar shed

samedi 30 août 2014

It is possible to move small ceder shed (2.8 m x 1.9 m, 2.3 m high) in one piece, without dismantling and re-assembling?. I need to move it (about 15 m ) while we demolish the existing house, and put it down on a new concrete slab or raised bearer and joist timber floor.



I was thinking to brace each corner internally with some timber at a 45 degree angle, and then make some additional bracing across the 2.8 m length of the shed, at about shoulder height, and (with a few helpers) just pick it up using this internal cross bracing and carry it across the lawn, after removing the bolts holding it to the current slab floor.



Is this a crazy idea? While the shed framing is pretty solid (structural pine), the lining is just thin cedar cladding, so I'm expecting it won't weigh a huge amount.



Or any better suggestions?
