Tongue Side or Groove Side against the wall for subfloor
Hi,
I am getting ready to put down an OSB subfloor (4X8 Sheets) and am just wondering what makes the most sense to put up against the wall? The tongue side or the groove side? I seem to find no information on this.
Also, I see on most information to leave the boards about 1/8 " apart when joining the boards and not getting them tight together... this surprised me because I always see them getting hammered tightly together.
Last question, how much room for expansion should I allow around the perimeter?
Thanks,
