Last updated: July 2026 dataSoftwood plywood — primarily produced from Douglas fir, southern yellow pine, and spruce-pine-fir — is a foundational structural panel used in wall sheathing, roof decking, and subfloor applications in US residential and commercial construction. Unlike hardwood plywood, softwood structural panels are graded under voluntary product standards (such as PS 1-19) administered through APA – The Engineered Wood Association, and span ratings printed on the panel stamp communicate load and spacing performance to builders. Softwood lumber and panel imports from Canada have historically been subject to countervailing and antidumping duties under the long-running Softwood Lumber Agreement dispute, making origin and duty status a persistent concern for US buyers.

The span rating on an APA-stamped panel indicates the maximum recommended center-to-center spacing of supports (in inches) for roof and floor applications. For example, a '32/16' rating means the panel can span 32 inches on roofs and 16 inches on floors. Imported panels must carry equivalent certification to be accepted on US construction projects subject to building codes.
Countervailing and antidumping duty orders on Canadian softwood lumber have at times been interpreted to include certain softwood plywood products, depending on scope determinations. Importers of Canadian softwood plywood should monitor active orders and CBP guidance closely, as duty liability can apply retroactively to entries made during a review period.
