2. Plywood - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plywood

   Aircraft plywood is available in thicknesses of 1 ⁄ 8 inch (3 mm) (3-ply construction) and upwards; typically aircraft plywood uses veneers of 0.5 mm (approx 1/64 in) thickness although much thinner veneers such as 0.1 mm are also used in construction of some of the thinner panels.

3. Shear wall - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shear_wall

   A typical timber shear wall consists of braced panels in the wall line, constructed using structural plywood sheathing, specific nailing at the edges, and supporting framing. A shear wall is an element of a structurally engineered system that is designed to resist in-plane lateral forces, typically wind and seismic loads.

4. Engineered wood - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Engineered_wood

   Plywood and OSB typically have a density of 560–640 kg/m 3 (35–40 lb/cu ft). For example, 9.5 mm (3 ⁄ 8 in) plywood sheathing or OSB sheathing typically has a surface density of 4.9–5.9 kg/m 2 (1–1.2 lb/sq ft). [51] Many other engineered woods have densities much higher than OSB.

5. Structural insulated panel - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Structural_insulated_panel

   EPS is the most common of the foams used and has an R-value (thermal resistance) of about 4 °F·ft 2 ·h/Btu (equivalent to about 0.7 K·m 2 /W) per 25 mm thickness, which would give the 3.5 inches (89 mm) of foam in a 4.5-inch-thick (110 mm) panel an R value of 13.8 (caution: extrapolating R-values over thickness may be imprecise due to non ...

6. Cross-laminated timber - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cross-laminated_timber

   The study aims to determine the buckling strength of Cross-Laminated Timber (CLT) walls by varying the thickness of individual layers while maintaining the total thickness. ANSYS is used to apply critical buckling loads to a set thickness wall and alter the thickness of each layer.

7. Cement board - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cement_board

   A cement board is a combination of cement and reinforcing fibers formed into sheets, of varying thickness that are typically used as a tile backing board. [1] Cement board can be nailed or screwed to wood or steel studs to create a substrate for vertical tile and attached horizontally to plywood for tile floors, kitchen counters and backsplashes.

8. List of insulation materials - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_insulation_materials

   This is a list of insulation materials used around the world.. Typical R-values are given for various materials and structures as approximations based on the average of available figures and are sorted by lowest value.

9. Building insulation material - Wikipedia

   They can be used for ceilings, floors, walls, and roofs. The panels usually consist of plywood, oriented strandboard, or drywall glued and sandwiched around a core consisting of expanded polystyrene, polyurethane, polyisocyanurate, compressed wheat straw, or epoxy.
