OSB
Oriented Strand Board (OSB) is a versatile, engineered wood panel widely used in structural applications. Made by compressing layers of wood strands with adhesives under high heat and pressure, OSB features a cross-oriented structure that enhances its strength and stability. Typically produced from fast-growing trees like aspen or pine, it’s a sustainable and cost-effective alternative to plywood. OSB is commonly used for wall sheathing, roof decking, and subflooring in residential and commercial construction. Its uniform density, durability, and ability to withstand heavy loads make it ideal for structural framing, offering reliable performance in diverse building projects.
