My industry uses it ALL the time in construction. Mostly panels though. And we almost NEVER sheath corner construction with it. It's a strength issue. Cheaper/lighter yes. By far. For box construction I would avoid it. It doesn't hold a screw edgewise to save its' life. Just my $.02. |

Gold Member Username: DeadrabitMarionville, MO Post Number: 1634 Registered: Jun-07 | OSB is strong . if u use glue and fibgerglass u can get about anything to hold togather good. now idk about u guys! but when i make a box using mdf or what ever wood i use i go over the inside with fiberglass resin or maybe just glass all of it. that was i don't have to worry aobut the voids . now advantech compared to OSB>??? i got this right off the like i just showed u AdvanTech flooring's moisture resistance, design bending strength and design stiffness are superior in comparison to commodity OSB or plywood now i am not going to say that i found this and am the first to ever use it. i told u all before jermy Ledgerwood was the guy that told me about this. and he has use it , baltic and mdf. he says mdf is pretty crappy to use for spl. so i thought hey ill look it up! and from what i can see its stronger. that with maybe layers of fiberglass its going to be good. i can't find any reason not to use it other than its kinda heavy but no more than mdf i can see none of u have ever tried it???? maybe i should make like 3 or 4 boxes that are all the same but different wood and get a meter to see what difference we can tell |
