Selection of plywood grades and types including ACX, CDX and CDX Radiant Barrier

Considered the original engineered wood product, plywood is manufactured from thin layers of cross-laminated wood veneers and bonded with strong adhesives under heat and pressure. The result is a graded, dimensionally stable structural panel with an excellent strength-to-weight ratio that can be used for subflooring, sheathing, shear walls and other building applications.

Oriented strand board is used for the second floor subflooring

Oriented Strand Board (OSB)

Oriented strand board is an engineered wood product that is identified by its relatively large and long wood strands that are bonded together with heat-cured adhesives under pressure. OSB panels are used for exterior sheathing and subflooring applications.
