Metal Carport On Gravel. I live in the northwest. If you are not particularly concerned with having a floor that is level, then gravel is a great choice.
However, if you are interested in a concrete pad, most concrete contractors will usually recommend pouring a concrete pad, or concrete slab, 3/4″ wider and the same length as the metal carport building frame you order. If you have a gravel foundation, we’ll typically use rebar anchors to secure your building. Most manufacturers include ground anchors for anchoring the carport in dirt.
I bought a home that has a 12'h x 12'w x 25'l carport enclosed on 2/4 sides.
If you need to install metal carport over a wooden surface, we use lag bolts to hold the structure to the ground. Does my land need to be level before installing a carport or garage?. But one question still lingers. The structure’s construction suffers greatly on uneven ground, and the warranty is voided by the inefficient installation.
