Select the correct thickness or span rating for the application as per local building code requirements, either a single layer combination subfloor/underlayment or a subfloor to be covered with underlayment, hardwood flooring, or light weight concrete. Lay panels across three or more supports, keeping the side marked "This Side Down" on the supports when using T&G panels. End joints must be made over the supports and should be staggered at least two supports.

Sheathing grade OSB subfloors are well suited for most floors and are intended to have an additional layer of flooring material such as an OSB underlayment panel, wood strip flooring or concrete topping. Single Floor grade panels are used as combination subfloor/underlayment do not require an additional layer. The edges of Sheathing or Single Floor panels must be supported with approved tongue and groove joints or solid blocking.
