Exterior plywood sheathing is a frequently used material in construction for walls, flooring, and roof decking. It is made up of several thin layers of wood, or plys, which are laid in opposite directions to one another, creating a more stable and structurally sound sheath.
Treated plywood is great for exterior applications as it helps protect against decay and destructive insects such as termites and carpenter ants1. Exterior grade softwood plywood is commonly used in the construction industry for its structural qualities and price point. Plywood sheathing can serve structural or nonstructural purposes. It is important to install structural sheathing in exterior walls to ensure the building will resist design wind pressures.
