I use 5/8" ply on all my roofs. this roof I did has 5/8" ply tongue and
groove on 16" centers. I like that type of ply since 1/2" is like glorified cardboard........ The nails get a better bite in 5/8" also.

I used 5/8" on mine too but 24" centres. I used a chipboard product that is
filled with resins and other things called "StructureWood", made for flooring and guaranteed not to edge feather for 90 days of rain & UV exposure during building. The stuff is rock hard but the roofing guys complained about it when putting the sheeting on. Nice for holding shingles and walking on though! Your picture looked thicker than 5/8". It still looks like a full 1" to me...LOL -------------------- "jloomis" wrote in message ... I use 5/8" ply on all my roofs. this roof I did has 5/8" ply tongue and groove on 16" centers.
