Here are the differences between the different classes of OSB:
- OSB 1: dry interior use, non-structural panel, multipurpose use.
- OSB 2: dry interior use, structural panel allowing installation on joists.
- OSB 3: interior or exterior use in humid environments, under shelter, structural panels.
- OSB 4: interior or exterior use in humid environment, under shelter, structural panels with high stress.
For example:
- To cover an existing floor, OSB 1 is sufficient.
- To create a floor on joists in dry interior, OSB 2 is required.
- For an interior partition (non-wet room): at least OSB 2.
- To create an exterior construction under a shelter: at least OSB 3.
- Flooring for a garden shed: at least OSB 3.
- For bracing panels: OSB 3 or 4 in case of strong constraints.
