How should i put my bird aviary on a concrete slap?

A few week ago my aviary blow over in a storm it was concrete down but that seem to not keep it down.Should i bolt it down and then put concrete on top of the bolts. If i was to get bolt what type bolts am i looking for and what drill would i use ?

When you bolt it down you need 5-8 inch bolts drill into the concrete and insert rawl plugs of the size that the bolt will go into (you can get large screws that are used by builders or window fitters these have the plugs)

Then put a washer or small piece of drilled plate,over the hole then put the screw or bolt through before fastening down ,this will stop any damge to the wood by the screw or bolt head.

You will need a masonary drill,to what ever size bolts screws you get ,but where ever you buy them from they will give you the info.

Hope this helps.
