Benefits of Bracing Plywood
Engineered for Structural Integrity: Specifically designed and certified to provide lateral strength to wall frames, resisting wind loads and seismic forces.
Clearly Marked with Bracing Ratings: Each sheet is stamped with its specific bracing capacity (e.g., BWB - Bracing Wall Board) and the required nailing pattern.
Mandatory for Code Compliance: Essential for meeting the wind bracing requirements outlined in the National Construction Code (NCC/BCA) and other engineering standards.
Strict Nailing Schedule: Must be installed according to a precise, engineer-specified nailing pattern around the perimeter and the studs to achieve its rated strength.
