How many 4x8 sheets of plywood make a unit?

Answer 1

Sorry, more information is needed: Is the area 26X10, or maybe 8X32.5? -It is best to lay this out on paper, to determine which way you want to orient your sheets. That way, you can see which way will use the least number of sheets.

Answer 2

Standard plywood is sized at 4 x 8 feet (48 x 96 inches), however plywood comes in a variety of sizes. Below are a few other standard sizes:

4' x 6', 4' x 7', 4' x 8', 4' x 10', & 4' x 12'

5' x 6', 5' x 8', 5' x 10', & 5' x 12'

And, in the following standard thicknesses:

1/8", 1/4", 3/8", 1/2", 5/8", 3/4", 1", 1-1/8" 1-1/4", & 1-1/2"

Nonstandard sizes of plywood can typically be special ordered as well for special purposes.

Plywood is usually an odd number of plys if veneer or solid core sheets. These range from 3-ply to well up to 15-ply. However, not all plywood is veneered. Some examples of nonveneer plywoods are MDF, Flakeboard, and fiberboard. A relatively new product called FSC Corrugated plywood is being manufactured by Corelam; one form of it looks much the same as corrugated cardboard.

MDF, Flakeboard and fiberboard are not plywoods at all, they are forms of chipboard. -Any plywood has plies (layers) -they don't
