Ooops! Yeah 300mm is more like it. That is an average guessitimate of it's depth. The ground slopes away to the south and it is cut into the other side by about 300 mm.
Greg: your instructions are excellent and echo Rolfs very well. The shed I am looking at is 2.7 x 1.8 meters. Thanks for the info.
Rolf: the slab is already there, been there for about 25 years as far as I can tell. The shed will sit on the slab, otherwise it would be huge and annoy my wife considerably not to mention cost heaps. It would also annoy the neighbours as it forms part of the back fence line. The shed will sit on beams on the slab. That is why I was checking the weight\stabilty numbers. At 10 +tonnes I very much doubt it will flex enough to make a difference and one day I might go remote. The floor will still be isolated from the pier by a gap to prevent any accidental knocks having an effect.
Heres a pic of the slab as it is at present. Overhanging tree at right is already gone. This is the south facing side. Mt Albert rises up behind to the NW. Roof will roll off in the direction of tree that is now gone.
