A 12×16 shed foundation typically requires approximately 3.11 cubic yards of gravel. It’s recommended to make the foundation one foot longer and wider than the shed on all sides. A 12×16 shed pad should ideally measure 14×18 feet and have a depth of at least 4 inches.
Please note that these calculations will only work if your site is level. If you are installing your shed on a slope, more gravel will be required. For more site prep information, check out our site prep page.
The total footprint of a 12×16 shed is 192 square feet. However, it’s important to 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 12×16 shed is around 165.5 square feet, which is calculated by multiplying 11 feet and 7 inches by 15 feet and 7 inches.
