A 12×20 shed foundation typically requires approximately 3.8 cubic yards of gravel. It’s recommended to make the foundation one foot longer and wider than the shed on all sides. A 12×20 shed pad should ideally measure 14×22 feet and have a depth of at least 4 inches.

How many square feet is a 12×20 shed?
The total footprint of a 12×20 shed is 240 square feet. However, please note that the usable interior space will be slightly smaller due to the wall studs, sheathing, and siding.
To calculate the usable floor space, subtract at least 5 inches from each side. As a result, the approximate usable interior space for a 12×20 shed is around 209 square feet.
