OSB Frequently Asked Questions

Is OSB roof sheathing slippery to walk on during roof applications?

OSB structural panels - with a textured surface - provide a safe, secure, nonslip surface for roofing installers wearing rubber-soled boots, according to comprehensive testing conducted by Forintek Canada Corp., a major Canadian independent research firm.

Tests were conducted under both wet and dry climatic conditions using OSB panels from a variety of SBA-member mills.
