Bruce hardwood over osb.

Osb that has absorbed moisture on the jobsite shrinks as it dries which can loosen around nails and staples that attach the hardwood flooring. I will be installing bruce unfinished 3 4 strip flooring this weekend. Hardwood flooring will not stabilize the osb subfloor so all movement must be remedied prior to hardwood installation. Main concern is nails staples coming loose from the osb over time.

Flooring is attached with staples to the subfloor which can be plywood oriented strand board osb high density particle board or even existing wood flooring. Ensure that no fasteners are exposed or raised and that there is at least an 1 8 inch gap between osb subfloor panels.
