Al,
O S B is oriented Strand Board. It seems to be a cross between plywood
and particle board. It is made up of long strands of wood, but rather
than being randomly

The main advantage of OSB over plywood is that it is usually cheaper.
I think plywood is probably a bit better structurally. Also, some OSB is
made without formaldehyde based glues, so can be considered greener than
plywood.

Does OSB have advantages over plywood?

O S B is oriented Strand Board. It seems to be a cross between plywood
and particle board. It is made up of long strands of wood, but rather
than being randomly glued together, the strands are aligned in specific
patterns.

Does it matter which way you lay down OSB board on the floor joists?
Does the long edge have to run parallel to the joists, or doesn&#

I got tung and groove OSB. I ordered quote 3/4 tung and groove plywood

ordering from, and told him it was for a sub floor. I also mentioned that
I was not an experienced carpenter, and he may have made some assumptions.

If you got toung and groove OSB, it makes no difference. However, if you
didn't, you want the 8' side to run with the joists. You
will need to suppport all edges of the OSB between the joists. With the piece
running lengthwise, you have less extra work to do.
