Osb On Concrete Wall

Construction is 2x6 wall 7 16 osb 2 inch eps foam high perm house wrap 3 4 rain screen and siding.

Osb on concrete wall.

He then got the osb back in place used his truck for side support and continued the pour. Select osb sheets rated for use as a wall sheathing that meet or exceed the stud spacing on your walls. On top of a foundation wall there is a barrier in cold climates that s a thin foam called sill seal that separates the concrete from the wood sill. The panels can be installed directly onto the concrete slab over sleepers which are installed onto the concrete slab or over rigid foam insulation.

But it is especially a concern for fresh concrete. You may use a sheet rated for a 24 inch span when studs are spaced 16 inches. Concrete cures this way for many years it almost continually is drying out. There is only one spot in the 14 span where the thickness is 12.

Half way through the pour the osb let go and he had concrete everywhere. Osb panels come in 4 foot widths and 8 foot or longer lengths. If the inside finished ceiling height will be 8 feet you can hang 9 foot osb panels vertically on. Osb structural wood panels can be installed over concrete slab floors for both commercial and residential applications.

I am wondering if the osb in direct contact with the concrete foundation wall will be an issue when the whole wall is completed. At that distance the strips are close enough to prevent buckling. Mark the concrete block walls at 16 inches on center to indicate where the furring strips will be attached. He used osb and 2x4 s to pour a wall 14 long 26 high 12 thick.

Currently exterior walls are up with a standard foam sill plate gasket and the 7 16 osb. The wood sill should be pressure treated to resist decay.
