hey, i have som pictures of different kinds of plywood. Can anybody advise me if i should put the in to a gallery on this page? i've allready put 2 of them on the page, but i still have 3 more... maybe it's not interesting for general readers to have these? Rotor DB 19:33, 6 March 2007 (UTC)

I have heard that in Plywood Terminology the "X" does not stand for "Exterior grade" but for the absolute lowest grade of plywood between the two faces... is that correct? 10:34, 3.7.2007, ----kananga

Exterior Grade plywood is NOT rot resistant. Any rot resistance comes from the type of wood, not the manufacturing process. CTJ

I've been poking around the internet and I don't think that coreboard is a type of plywood. Can't find a good definition though. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.108.81.213 (talk) 02:01, 7 September 2007 (UTC)

standard sizes

"Plywood can be sold in sizes up to 6 ft * 25 ft and by the scarf jointing of small sheets up to 6 ft *40 ft, however 6 ft*3 ft is the most common size."

I've never even heard of 6 ft x 3 ft sheets. In the USA, 4 ft (102 mm) x 8 ft (203 mm) is the standard size of plywood with longer sheets available on special order. It is a well engineered standard size and coordinates with the rest of the construction industry. Do other countries use different sizes? JimScott (talk) 14:50, 8 July 2008 (UTC)

Plywood size 4x8 ft is sold as 1220 x 2440 mm in Belgium and most of Europe. Other sizes are 10x5 ft (= 3050x1525mm) and in Europe we have more and more 2500x1220 or 2500x1250mm. Max sizes are limited by the size of the trucks available to transport them! 6x3 ft is a standard size but is pretty rare on the market (here in Belgium at least) JurgenG (talk) 15:57, 8 July 2008 (UTC)
