What happens here

After the 24-hour soak, retrieve the wood samples. Carefully examine each piece for signs of swelling (increase in thickness), delamination (separation of layers), or any other structural degradation. Compare the two samples side-by-side to assess their relative performance.

Goal: Assess and compare the water damage and structural changes in the plywood and OSB samples.
