Utility Shed: The definition of utility is usefulness. So a utility shed should be a useful shed. Something with a purpose. Many utility sheds are used for storage of items that can’t fit in your house or garage. Other useful purposes of a shed include storage of lawn care items, gardening items, potting and planting and storage of bikes or vehicles. Gable sheds are one of the most popular choices in shed building. This 8 X 10 shed plan is simple and is a great economical storage solution. Gable sheds have a single sloping plane of the same pitch on both sides of the ridge. The gable style roof pitch ranges from 4/12 to as high as 12/12 but a 12/6 pitch roof is very common in gable sheds. Gable sheds are unique in that they provide storage space up high in the truss area. If you have run out of room in your garage, they style of shed would be the perfect place to store all sorts of things. |
