It is easiest to nail the wall together on the floor then raise and brace then until all walls are completed. Follow the supplier's plan for every wall. Install the roof and apply mineral coated tarpaper to roof. Start at the lower end of the roof and use roofing nails along upper of sheet and sides, glue the bottom to the sheet below it. Never nail upper sheet to lower sheet. Nail at 6" interval only.
