White oak is typically what is used for trailer floors. Not so much for weather resistance, but for strength. Unless he's hauling some really heavy equipment or driving a forklift on the trailer, might be able to use treated lumber. Cheaper and last longer than oak.
Marine grade plywood is great, but it's not intended to span much distance unsupported. Solid wood boards are much more prone to cracking, but will probably be thicker and able to support more load without deflection assuming you get the right kind of boards.
The more structure and support you have on the bottom, the thinner you can go. 0.045″ would be the thinnest we recommend. If you don't have a strong support on the bottom or you have beams, then you should go thicker. The most popular thicknesses would be 0.188″ (3/16″) or 0.125″ (1/8″), and even 0.25 (1/4″).
Having a decent gap is good for the longevity of a deck as too small of a gap allows debris to get trapped in between the boards, the debris will trap moisture longer leading to rot.
Out. So here we're getting a look at the oil and wax buffed in with a white scotch. Brite. I'm veryMoreOut. So here we're getting a look at the oil and wax buffed in with a white scotch. Brite. I'm very happy with how it went plus going up to just 220 these boards are going to be used.
For trailer floors and wagon purposes, marine-grade plywood is recommended due to its resistance to moisture and durability. It's designed to withstand the elements, making it suitable for outdoor use. If budget is a concern, exterior-grade plywood can also be a viable option.
Plywood floors are stiffer than OSB floors by a factor of approximately 10%. As a result, OSB floors are more likely to: squeak due to floor movement; cause hard floor surfaces to crack (such as tile); and.
You MUST treat the ends and any cuts with 3-4 coats of preservative AND be sure there's a gap between the boards ! ANY 'standing ' water will eventually rot a board. 3rd. clean the trailer top and bottom !,keep deck tilted,in the sun and wind. If it's dirty and under trees, moisture invites mold and bugs and rot...
