As I stated in my last post, I am building a shed 8' x 14'. With OSB prices out of the roof (no pun intended :D ), what alternative roof sheathing could I use? I am planning on using shingles. My roof is 10' x 16'. My rafters are on 16" centers. Would an insulative product such as Energy-Brace work? Thanks!

I've never heard of Energy-Brace, so I can't comment on that, but I would still go with the 7/16" OSB. You're only talking about 6 sheets, so the cost should be about $102 at Home Depot ($16.96/sheet)

1/2" is pretty typical. I prefer CDX over OSB.
