Plywood is manufactured in many variations. Plywood is used to build furniture, cabinets, concrete forms or any other construction project that requires large, flat pieces of wood. Plywood is created by placing thin layers of wood with glue under extreme pressure in hydraulic presses to create a single sheet of wood. Softwood plywood is typically used for structural building and construction applications. Hardwood plywood is used for furniture and cabinets.
Plywood Types and Application. Originally, plywood referred to wood panels made of multi-layered veneer, bonded together with glue. While this term is still accurate, today the name plywood has become more generic, being used to refer to all types of engineered wood panels.his is the most common plywood product, made of softwood veneer, usually fir. The layers are stacked at a right angle to each other and glued together with resinous glues. Softwood plywood usually comes in 4â x 8â sheets, although 5â x 5â sheets are also available.
