    Plywood

    Plywood is made of thin layers of wood, called plies, that are laminated together. This layer structure leads to more uniform properties than solid wood by minimizing the effects of wood grain orientation. Plywood properties vary depending on the quality of the plies used, with typical values listed for sheathing grade plywood including tensile strength, flexural modulus, compressive strength, shear modulus, and thermal conductivity.

    Categories: Wood and Natural Products; Wood

    Material Plywood is made of several thin layers, or 'plies' that are laminated together. The layer structure leads to
    Notes: more uniform properties than solid wood, since the effects of grain anisotropy are minimized. The
    properties of plywood vary with the quality of the constituent layers; typical values of sheathing grade
    are listed below.
