What is the perpendicular-to-face bearing capacity of plywood?   I know doug-fir is 625 psi, and hem-fir is 405 psi, but what is plywood (or OSB for that matter)?

please no guessing, only respond if you know.  thnks.

Check out www.apawood.org for a publication called Plywood Design Specification, January 1997.  It has the information you want.  I downloaded it as a pdf file from the internet for free.  It is about 32 pages long.
