OSB is an awful material in my opinion. It rots real quickly, it

It's been misused by builders over and over. My slate floor was
laid on top of it... The builder was an idiot.

And that's how I feel about it... :-)


Pretty much how I feel about OSB as well. As a builder, I will not
use OSB for sheathing or roof decking, period.


I guess wee need to specify what we're talking about because technically
Advantech is an Oriented Strand Board, no?
