Structural 1 Rated Sheathing: Floors

Structural 1 Panel (11.9mm) – Bending Strength & Stiffness with Support Spacing ‘Floor-16’ 

General info: Structural 1 indicates a performance-rated panel, with superior bending stiffness and strength
Bending strength  – stress applied parallel: Factor of safety (F S) bending strength – 445 (lb-in²/ft of panel width) when stress applied parallel to strength axis. The strength axis is always parallel to the face and back orientation of the strands unless otherwise indicated
Bending strength  – stress applied perpendicular: Factor of safety (F S) bending strength – 247.5 (lb-in²/ft of panel width) when stress applied perpendicular to strength axis
Bending stiffness – stress applied parallel: E I (lb-in²/ft of panel width) – 115,000 when stress applied parallel to strength axis. E I provides a measure of the resistance of the beam to bending. The larger the E I, the smaller the deflection
Bending stiffness – stress applied perpendicular: E I – 40,000 when stress applied perpendicular to strength axis
Span rating/support spacing: Floor-16
Thickness/US Performance Category*: 11.9mm (min 11.13mm; max 12.7mm); (15/32)*
