Attic flooring?

robertxxx · 2012-01-02 17:20:54

Hi all, Is it safe to use 3 of 8*4 plywood sheets as attic flooring? id say its easily the same weight as the t&g chipboard. Its just for light storage, boxes suitcases etc. cheers

how far apart are the joists? With ply you'd be safe enough anyway, although 8x4 may be tricky to get through a hatch, save yourself some hardship and cut it into 4x2 pieces!
