This webinar provides an in-depth overview of wood structural panel (WSP) specification and design principles, focusing on APA’s Panel Design Specification (Form D510) and Load-Span Tables for APA Wood Structural Panels (Form Q225). Attendees will gain a comprehensive understanding of plywood and OSB panel properties, APA trademarks, building code compliance, and how to apply design values when specifying WSPs in structural applications. The course includes two practical design examples for the structural design of heavily loaded roof and wall sheathing. This session is ideal for engineers and other design professionals involved in wood construction.
