I am building a playhouse / shed in the garden - about 2sqm. The base is constructed using 2x4 treated timber, lifted up a little (~2 inches) on legs of 2x4 to raise it off the slab patio that I am constructing it on top of. I have boarded the floor area with 18mm exterior ply, screwed to the 2x4 using galv decking screws.
I have had some good responses to other questions, and have built the wall frames and roof trusses using treated 3x2. I am almost ready to screw/nail it all together to form the overall frame.
However.... before I do..... I am wondering about a DPM and insulation for the floor. Could/should I lay a DPM sheet onto the ply, build the frame on top of this, and then fold it a few inches up the frame and fix ? I would then lay 3x2 inside the frame on the floor, nailing to the outer frame to maintain the DPM and then waterproofed T&G ontop of this - maybe with some rockwool underneath.
Does this sound like a reasonable plan ? Could I use roof felt underlay for the DPM as I will have some spare from wrapping the outside before cladding?
