Non CE sheds

its badly thought out regulations, that are difficult to police, that can be circumnavigated. ultimately it is the supplier of the steel structure that is breaking the law if they supply a frame that is not CE, You can, however, employ a welder to weld your steel into a frame for use on your farm. I think.

I don't think you can employ a welder to weld it on your farm, I think you have to weld it yourself on your farm.

You might well be correct , no doubt in the minds of the great and good that make up these rules, they are able to justify the logic of allowing an un qualified farmer welder to construct a building, but stop him from employing a qualified welder.:):)

As long as the welding is of good quality, the steel is heavy enough, you put the bracings in, uprights are bolted to good pads or concreted in deep etc. etc. As @multi power said above, You'll have a shed. First little shed we built on our own in 1979 is still there.
 
i could build it, whats the difference?

As everyone else has said, crash on get it made (y)

You can employ a welder to weld it, you give him the drawings ect to work to and that's fine, ce marking only counts for selling a product, because your welder is selling a service it doesn't count :)

Do you think a farmer can employ a fabricator to weld the frame together at the fabricators premisises?
