All our columns are RHS 100x150 with base plates. Holes were drilled in the slab and bolts placed in with Chemset adhesive. The cladding comes down slightly past the slab. We filled the gaps with expanding foam and have no rodent problems. One thing to remember with pouring the slab later, is that if you need the 3m height in your shed ( ie caravan or similar access) your doorway access will be reduced by up to 125mm. So your doorway may only 2.6 or thereabouts in height. Also sliding door access will give greater height than a roller door.
