Plywood is an artificial board made of thinly peeled wood, one layer at a time, with the fibers perpendicular to each other and glued together.
Compared to solid wood, plywood is less expensive, absorbs less water, and is less susceptible to warping due to temperature and humidity.
Another feature of choosing plywood is the choice of prints such as wood grain and the ability to enhance sound insulation.
Disadvantages include concerns about sick building syndrome, allergies, and chemical odors caused by adhesives.
Plywood covered with sheets will require maintenance after 10 to 20 years, and replacement costs will be incurred.
Plywood is used as a building material in a variety of locations.
