I am planning for a new pole barn to store hay under 26x40. Not planning on pouring a slab. I squared and marked the corners this weekend and shot the grade since the land is slopped a little. I will need about 30 yards of fill to level the floor and build it up a bit also.
What fill should I use that will pack fairly well and not wash away?
Is it better to get the fill dumped inside the footprint of the floor and then use a tractor and box blade to pull it where it is needed or dump it outside the foot print and then use a front-end loader to scoop and place where needed? Or does it even matter?
How high should I build it up at a time before packing?
Any other helpful thoughts are appreciated also.
