P-LPWBLONG

LP® LongLength™ oriented strand board (OSB) sheathing panels are engineered to make building for tall wall applications easier. LP LongLength sheathing can lower building costs, increase wall strength, and help meet code requirements in high wind and seismic zones.

Building with LP LongLength nine- and ten-foot panels creates a stronger frame in both single and multi-family applications by using only one panel to connect the top plate with the floor system, resulting in stronger walls. Installed vertically, the panels minimize sheathing joints to reduce air leakage and help builders meet challenging energy codes.

The engineered strength of OSB technology ensures a reliable longer length product. Rectangular wood strands blended with thermal-set, waterproof adhesives are arranged in cross-directional layers. The layers are consolidated under extreme pressure, creating a stiff, strong and durable OSB panel.

LP OSB Structural panels are quality verified by APA, and are manufactured in conformance with U.S. Voluntary Product Standard PS2, which is recognized in the Uniform Building Code, the International Building Code and the International Residential Code, or by International Code Council Evaluation service (ICC-ES) Evaluation Report ESR-2586 and by HUD Use of Materials Bulletin No. 40c.

LP OSB sheathing panels should be fastened with conventional nailing techniques. Consult your local building authorities regarding acceptability of fastening techniques. Panels may be sawn cleanly, and may be routed or drilled with standard woodworking tools.
