Constructive Process of using plates OSB (Oriented Strand Board) in sustainable structural systems in a Residential building in the city of Manaus - AM

Abstract

The use of reforestation wood in civil construction plays an important role in the sustainable development of the world, as is the case with oriented wood strip panels. Coming from continuous technological advancement, which adds quality to the material and creates new constructive solutions, OSB (Oriented Strand Board) panels appear as an effective alternative for society. This work aims to broaden the knowledge about the use of OSB boards in the building system (CES), due to their function and application in wall, slab, roof and roof sealing, based on a case study of the construction process of a residence. in the city of Manaus. Advantages and disadvantages of this system were compared when compared to the conventional system, and its use (OSB / CES) has been shown to meet the sustainability criteria, as it is ecologically viable, being a clean, lean process; economically viable, fast, cheap and inclusive as it generates local employment. Further studies are needed to understand the importance of using clean technologies for construction, capable of reducing impacts on the environment, without compromising the development of the site.

Engineered Wood Products as a Sustainable Construction Material: A Review

“…Since the mid-1980s, OSB has been one of the most commonly used engineered wood-based panels for structural construction in residential sectors due to excellent properties, especially due to the increasingly competitive price [65,66]. OSB is an engineered structural panel made from strands of wood sliced from small diameter timber logs and bonded together with an exterior grade adhesive, under heat and pressure [67][68][69][70]. OSB is manufactured in various grades with improving resistance to the effects of moisture (Figure 7).…”
