What happens here
The first step shown in the video is installing the subfloor sheathing onto a pre-constructed wooden floor frame. The worker carefully positions large sheets of engineered wood paneling, such as AdvanTech OSB, over the floor joists. A circular saw (appears to be a Makita) is used to make precise cuts to fit the panels around obstacles or to trim them to size. A battery-powered framing nailer (appears to be a Milwaukee M18 Fuel Framing Nailer) is then used to quickly and securely fasten the subfloor panels to the joists with nails, creating a solid base for the shed structure.
Goal: Cover the floor frame with subfloor panels
