agree  David Mitchell: Usually "centerline dimensions" for somewhat irregular shapes, just "6 x 12 m rectangular shed 4 m high" for regular shape..

canopy


Explanation:
it should be canopy considering your previous question. Если это "козырёк", навес над входом в здание, например.

a 4-meter-high shed with sides of 6 and 12 meters


Explanation:
I can't agree this is a canopy or awning (one of Callaham's choices) with a 4 m height mentioned and thus prefer shed or hangar, Callaham's first two entries for Навес. No need to translate "axes" as such - they're just
the surface dimensions.
