What is the most common sheathing board used to line an external wall to be timber clad?

Sheathing is situated in the wet zone of the design and therefore needs to be water resistant.  Currently the most often used material is OSB3 which is a water resistant OSB.  Water resistant plywood can also be used but this is much less common.  Both solutions require a breather member to be used on top of the sheathing board.  Alternatively, the use of latex impregnated wood based fibreboard insulation negates the need for a breather membrane.  However, in this case the sheathing board needs to be moved to the inside wall in a 'reverse wall' type of arrangement. 

Sheathing has a load bearing function as it needs to resist all lateral loads on the building such as wind loads.  Sheathing thickness typically ranges from 9mm to 18mm depending on the anticipated lateral loads.
