FRP sheathing

[John Dirks Jr]

I know FRP was used in common break walls. Was it also regularly used as sheathing across the entire roof?

What is FRP?

[Jerry Simon]

Fire-retardant plywood. And, yes, it was used for roof decking. As I recall, a bunch of defective FRT was found in Florida years back.

Thanks Jerry!

[John Dirks Jr]

Actually a good question Les. I was wrong with FRP. I meant to say FRT. I second the motion on the thanks Jerry. Thanks for putting up the link too. Good info there.

Yea, I believe FRP actually stands for fiberglass reinforced panels--the stuff you see in industrial bathroom walls.

They can just use a hose to spray off the walls.
