The OSB wood not be my preferred choice but its what I got .I am thinking I'll try my own lift test when get to the end of the project if there is material left over.>>>

Ring shank copper nails are much weaker than smooth. Not to mention, an OSB deck is completely unsuitable for a slate roof. Might as well use shingles and the life would be about the same.>>>
