What are the types of plywood?

While plywood is commonly thought to be an uneven number of layers or plies of wood assembled at right angles to each other, the commercial definition is that an assembly of three or more layers is plywood. Therefore plywood can be plastic laminate or veneer with a particleboard or MDF core. Melamine board is not considered to be plywood because the melamine paper is so thin. When specifying plywood you can request veneer core, particle board core, lumber core, multicore ( a combination of veneer and strand board), MDF core. It is critical in constructing plywood that there be a balanced construction i.e. the same thickness and weight of material on each side of the core. For this reason putting plastic laminate on one side of a cabinet door made of melamine is not acceptable.

Will plywood doors warp?

i wouldn't use plywood to make cabinet doors or entry-way doors either I would use ply-wood for the center of a door panel and I would use poplar or some other hardwood for the stiles and rails to add to the ply-panel door. I would use only plywood for a cabinet door only for a shop tool cabinet. The larger the sheet of plywood the more chance of warping-- stiles and rails tend to keep wood panels from warping.


What is the difference between plywood and solid wood?

What's the difference between hardboard, Masonite, MDF, and plywood?These terms tend to be used interchangeably when people mean a board or wood panel rather than canvas. Masonite, which is often used as a painting support, is a trademarked brand name of a particular type board made (in very basic terms) from wood fibers and glue (resin) that is molded into flat boards. High-grade or furniture plywood makes a good painting support. Extremely smooth plywood is made from birch, mahogany, and poplar. Another painting surface to consider is a hollow core door, which makes a relatively light panel. Laminated board have a mica film on its surface to give it resistance and strength; check which side sands better and use this side to paint on.* http://painting.about.com/od/paintingforbeginners/a/hardboard.htm

Outside measurement of the building using one 16' and one 8' door, 1/2" plywood siding and no overhang would be 25' and 8". You need a minimum of 3" on each side of the door for the track and the thickness of the outside walls. If you are going it sheetrock the inside increase the measurement by twice the thickness of whatever you use. If 1/2" thick than the total width would be 25' 8".
