I will have OSB+gypsum on exterior and interior walls. Gypsum is available in 2400mm height (and others), and then you can choose between 900mm and 1200mm width. But why is OSB only available in 2500mm?
Have I misunderstood something about the installation method?
On exterior walls, this might not be a problem as they apparently should preferably be installed horizontally on the installation layer. But on interior walls, you only have vertical studs, so you have to cut every board by 10cm to fit the standard height of 240 cm? And this is still a kind of standard since there are gypsum boards in this size. Is it so simple to cut OSB compared to gypsum that it's not worth manufacturing in more sizes?

You have probably just looked in the wrong pile, or maybe in a store with a poor selection. A quick search on the Byggmax website shows that they sell OSB boards that are 2390mm https://www.byggmax.se/osb-skiva-p10096
The cc-distance will be strange, right? 2500mm divided by what?T Tjrex said:
Okay, thanks, I am apparently very bad at searching. It looks almost perfect. A bit cumbersome to carry in 120cm boards, but it will be perfect for cc60, just choose between vertical or horizontal, it fits both directions. 90x240cm OSB is perhaps too much to ask?Dheri said:
Interior walls 120x240 OSB and then 90x240 drywall on the outside should work well.

Hah ok but nothing in stock or possibility to buy online, but at least it exists!
But with a panel carrier that z_bumbi suggested, maybe it's possible to get in 120x240, so it will be cc60 on the interior walls instead. Then I can take drywall in 90x240 if it turns out to be tight to get in osb. Or it was so convenient that it will be 120x240 then as well.
Yes maybe. I have never plastered drywall but dislike it already. But at the same time, my walls are rarely more than 5 meters long in each room, which only means 1-2 extra seams, and on shorter walls just 1 extra. And then come windows, door openings. So I think it won't make a huge difference.
That is at 120cm vs 90cm.
