It is made for concrete formwork, not for permanent structural decks. Use structural ply for roofs and floors.

Yes. Put everything on one list, from plywood to fixings and PPE, and we will price it as one delivery where the products can travel together.

Is there a minimum order for delivery to Newtownabbey?

There is no fixed minimum. For very small orders we will tell you honestly if the delivery cost outweighs the materials, so you can decide.

What thickness for a flat roof deck?

18 mm structural ply is common on joists at 400 mm centres; your design may specify more.
