OSB-question

Västerhaninge 17 · 13 Oct 2010 at 7:13 PM

I will mount OSB boards on the exterior walls (inside) and drywall on top of that. The height between the floor and the rafters is 2600 mm. Boards at building markets are 2440 mm

What do you think? Should I splice with a strip of OSB (if so, how) or order boards that are 2700 mm, which I would also have to cut:| plus the additional cost, about 63:-/board x 16 pcs

1000:- can be worth getting whole records....

Buy boards with a width of 900mm and lay them down. Then you need to cut the last 100mm and they are easier to work with.

Hmmm. Worth considering:| , need to measure between the studs and think a bit (it's not cc600 everywhere)

I have similar problems and I chose to lay the records down. There was a bit of extra cutting but it's never visible anyway.
