Structural block
Masonry block, with a compression strength of between 1800 to 3000 psi, usable in a wall that will carry a structural load.
Structural clay tile

Structural composite panels
Consist of veneer faces bonded to a wood-base core material, such as OSB. Composite panels are manufactured in three- or five-layer arrangements. A three-layer panel has a wood fiber core and a veneer face and back, while a five-layer panel also has a veneer crossband in the center. When manufactured in a one-step pressing operation, voids in the veneers are filled automatically by the particles or strands as the panel is pressed in the bonding process. Typical composite panel applications include sheathing, siding and industrial applications.
Structural composite plywood panel
Plywood panels with a core of flakeboard, and tongue and groove edges, which is used as sub-flooring because it is less expensive than regular plywood.
