Up here in Canada, a lot of industrial and commercial blueprints are in metric ....... I think ...... not totally sure ...... someone might be able to shed some light on that. If not for wood construction, then for pipe fitting, etc maybe. I believe at one time during the early times of our conversion to metric up here, there might have been some plywood sheets that were some kind of metric size (close to 4' x 8') but that didn't stick around. Plywood thickness did go metric, for example of 3/4" sheet of finishing grade plywood still today is only 19mm thick which is slightly thinner than 3/4". I found that out the hard way 25 years ago when building some kitchen cabinets and I had used 3/4" oak plywood for the project. After routering 3/4" slots in my cabinets, I found out when assembling some cabinet boxes that the adjoining pieces of wood had a very sloppy fit. I then found out that I needed a 19mm router bit which I still have and use occasionally for plywood if it is metric thickness. Strange thing though that up here, products like MDF board are a full 3/4" thick.
