The bulkhead would be a vertical panel so I would test a 12" x 12" piece in that position. Using a hydraulic jack to raise my car ('95 Geo Prism) I would put the test piece vertically under a hard point and release the jack. Compare the dimensions before and after. The laminate would be stronger and there would be less problems with splintering than plain plywood.
