Building a concrete floored shed, dealing with moisture?

[GiraffePencils]

Hey all,

I'm looking to put up a shed in my garden, due to dimensions I'm planning on just building it myself.
I'm just wondering about how you prevent moisture build up when having a concrete floor?

Usually you'll raise the shed up on batons to let air flow underneath, but I was wanting to have the floor concrete, rather than wooden.

Any advice would be helpful.

Cheers

Do you not put plastic sheeting under the concrete, my dad/me built a shed not so long ago so I'll ask him today.

You do yes, but if you stick the framework down to the concrete, then you could get water laying against the timber etc.

So I'm wondering if I wrap the DPM up the side of the frame, then put the cladding over it, will that be a reasonable solution?

I'll have a look at those angled base boards too
