Just a quick question, what does O.S.B. stand for? thanks Al -----Original Message----- From: blindhandyman@yahoogroups.com [mailto:blindhandy...@yahoogroups.com]on Behalf Of clifford Sent: Wednesday, March 31, 2010 9:55 PM To: blindhandyman@yahoogroups.com Subject: Re: [BlindHandyMan] orientification
Dear Dan: We always put O. S. B. down, with the long sides crossing at right angles, the joists. The short sides were broken on the center of a joist and screwed at one foot intervals. Yours Truly, Clifford Wilson Ps. By the way, I prefer the O. S. B. as a sub-floor. ----- Original Message ----- From: Dan Rossi To: Blind Handyman List Sent: Wednesday, March 31, 2010 5:03 PM Subject: [BlindHandyMan] orientification Does it matter which way you lay down OSB board on the floor joists? Does the long edge have to run parallel to the joists, or doesn't it matter? I laid out the joists with the idea that the short edges would run parallel to the joists, but before I start screwing things down, I want to make sure I don't screw them up. -- Blue skies.
