Applications of plywood on the construction site

Structural and exterior plywoods have many applications on the building site. These include:

• Concrete formwork
• Structural ramps
• Overhead protective barriers
• Housing for tools and implements
• Runways
• Protective partitions for saws and welding areas
• Hoardings

Temporary site buildings are readily constructed from reusable Type A bonded structural and exterior panels.

Generally, the structural requirements, bond durability, preservative and finishing requirements of the plywood must be considered for each application.
