Need Help!!!

I have a covered Lean-to built on the side of my shop that's approximately 14'w X 18'lg and it where I keep my tractor and GT but I'd like to move some of my bigger tools from the shop (too crowded)
out there.I'm disabled and retired and the only income is the wife's
so could I start by building a 2.5ft wide pad in sections around inside perimeter (see pic)Total is 2.5' x 14' across back and 31' x 2.5' for both sides so I could move my larger tools out of the shop and then have the main pad 15.5' x 9' poured later as the money is a Real problem and will be for the near future. Soil is rock hard clay and lots of iron-ore w/about 4" to 6" of sand on top.The clays so hard that I broke 4 auger tips on a 67hp Massy before I got my 96 post in for my horse pasture 5yrs ago. I've got plenty of heavy 12.5 gauge Diamond mesh horse fence, around for maybe the sectioned areas? Any suggestions greatly appreciated.

Thank You!

I would just leave the center open or maybe add some crush and run gravel to it or some other material that packs pretty solid.

Good luck with all that, those kinds of decisions can out last a lifetime! :)
