Critical preparation steps:

• Foundation: Ensure your base is completely level and solid (this is essential for proper assembly)
• Weather Protection: If you can’t start immediately, stack materials horizontally and cover them
• Part Sorting: Use the building plan to identify and sort all components before starting
• Expansion Allowance: Leave 5mm spacing between floor boards and 2mm between roof boards for natural expansion
• Access: Ensure adequate space around the building site for assembly and future maintenance
