With the advancement of modern science, new materials have been born that have gradually replaced traditional natural wood, of which Plywood is a typical example. So how is Plywood used, let us find out with A1 Plywood!
1. Interior
- Although not commonly used, Plywood can certainly be used to build interior walls in your home.
- Plywood can be used to construct interior walls in terms of the interior layer, or in other words, if it is intended to be used for structural purposes only, so there will be something to support the walls of the house.
- Low grade plywood can be used for interior walls and then covered with something like crushed stone or drywall.
- There are more premium grades of extremely smooth plywood that can be used for the surface of interior walls. If the plywood is premium grade and smooth enough, it can be painted over.
2. Exterior
- A good example of where plywood is used as an exterior wall covering is in North America many homes are built using 2×4 or 2×6 foot panel frames, which are sheathed with plywood side panels.
- Plywood is used to fasten the studs together, which adds strength to the frame of the house. These plywood panels help prevent vertical and horizontal displacement, thus keeping the structure both square and intact.
- Exterior wall plywood is often used in areas with severe weather, especially wind, because it has great flexibility, that’s why it is also used in many homes with earthquake resistant.
- It will use high- grade plywood for exterior purposes.
3. Roofing
- Plywood is a material commonly used in the roofing industry that is very thin and light.
- Plywood is very durable; it can withstand a lot of weight and can resist moisture very well.
- There is also the fact that because plywood has a diagonal pattern, it holds nails and screws very well, making it the ideal material for attaching to the roof below and mounting the shingles on top.
- High-quality plywood makes an excellent support for conventional shingles and metal shingles.
4. Flooring
- Plywood is also commonly used in the construction of floors used mainly for subflooring, or in other words a layer of flooring below the main floor.
- That said plywood isn’t often used as a main deck because it just doesn’t look good enough. Furthermore, there are more durable materials that can be used for the main floor, those that are much more resistant to wear and tear.
- However, when it comes to subflooring, there really isn’t a better material than plywood. Plywood is extremely durable and due to its diagonal pattern it can withstand a lot of weight and is very flexible.
- Furthermore, the right plywood can resist moisture when combined with a moisture-proof layer; it can help keep your main floors dry and safe from damage.
5. Garden Shed
- One of the most common places you’ll see plywood panels are at garden sheds.
- Plywood is an inexpensive, durable, and force-resistant material that makes for the perfect fall wall.
- Sure, solid wood can last a little longer and look a little better, but it’s also more expensive and harder to work with. If you need a low- cost, quick and simple shed to keep the things inside dry, plywood is a great way to go.
6. Cabinets And Furniture
- When it comes to closing all kinds of furniture, chairs, tables, cabinets, bookshelves or anything in between, plywood is always a great choice.
- Plywood is the perfect cost-effective choice for furniture and cabinetry, especially as an option over the much more expensive solid wood.
- Plywood is a much stronger material than MDF and is also lighter. Therefore, plywood is often preferred over both MDF and solid wood for cabinets and furniture.
