1. Concrete Base Installation Statement of Work Form
Provide details about your concrete base installation project to get started.
1. What type of structure is to be installed?
*
Shed
Outdoor Office
Green House
Other
2. What is the purpose of the structure to be installed?
*
3. What is the width (in m) of the outdoor structure you need a concrete base for?
*
4. What is the length (in m) of the outdoor structure you need a concrete base for?
*
Area of Structure
If greater than 15m2 Planning permission may be required
Area of concrete base required.
shed base should be extra 100mm on each side which is 10cm so extra .2 to area calculations. https://tradecalcs.uk/landscaping/shed-base-calculator/
Based on the Standard area of your structure the concrete base thickness (m) should be:
For standard domestic garden sheds under 10 square meters, we typically recommend a minimum concrete base for shed depth of 100mm (4 inches).
Based on the Medium to Large area of your structure the concrete base thickness (m) should be:
This is for premium sturctures. ---- This provides sufficient structural integrity for most typical storage sheds. For larger structures like workshops or garden rooms, we increase this to 150mm (6 inches) to enhance the load-bearing capacity. Premium garden buildings or those housing heavy equipment often warrant bases of 150-200mm with additional reinforcement requirements.
8. Do you have a link to the structure you wish to install?
Ground Preparation and Access
9. Do you require the contractor to prepare or excavate the ground?
*
Yes
No
11. Will you require disposal of the excavated ground?
*
Please Select
Yes
No
Please note if the volume of substrate to be excavated is greater than 1.69m3 then a skip may be required.
12. Volume of Ground to excavate for a standard base size
ispose of calculation based on width, length, and height - this will be are of structure plus x either side plus 100mm - comment could be 50-100mm substrate but this calculatoror is based on 100mm
Volume of Ground to excavate for medium to large base size
ispose of calculation based on width, length, and height - this will be are of structure plus x either side plus 100mm - comment could be 50-100mm substrate but this calculatoror is based on 100mm

Material Costs
In this calculation we use the following link to provide estimates. https://www.diy.com/ideas--advice/building--hardware/cement-mortar--concrete/concrete-mix-ratios. We use a ration of 1:2:3, 1 part cement, 2 parts sand, and 3 parts aggregate.
Volume of MOT 1 substrate required for a Standard Base
Volume of MOT 1 substrate required for a Medium to Large Base
Wet Volume of concrete for a Standard Base (m3)

Standard Dry Volume
Medium to Large Dry Volume
14. How much cement for a base is to be used (KG) for a Standard Base? (1part)
Calculating cement requirements involves determining concrete volume, applying the appropriate mix ratio, and accounting for material density. Standard cement density is approximately 1440 kg/m³, while one 25kg bag occupies about 0.0174 m³ volume.
