=Torat HaBayit and Mishmeret HaBayit=
# The Torat HaBayit comes in two parts, "Aroch" and "Katzar."
# The Mishmeret HaBayit was written by the Rashba,<ref>Yad Malachi (Klalei HaRashba 4). The Chida (Shem HaGedolim, Gedolim, Shin 19) adds that many Gedolim missed this point while they were engrossed in their learning.</ref> but it wasn't in print at the times of the [[Beit Yosef]], [[Rama]], and [[Maharshal]] for them to see it.<ref>Shem HaGedolim (Gedolim, Shin 19), Matnat Yado fn. 10</ref>
=Avodat HaKodesh=
# In Avodat HaKodesh, the Rashba's Sefer on Shabbat, Yom Tov, and Eruvin, he writes "יראה לי" when referring to Halachot from the [[Yerushalmi]], [[Tosefta]], and anything else not mentioned in [[Talmud Bavli]].<ref>Pri Chadash Orach Chaim 498:9, Yad Malachi (Klalei HaRashba 3)</ref>
# Like the Torat HaBayit, the Avodat HaKodesh also has an "Aroch" and "Katzar," but the "Aroch" is no longer extant. Thus, out Avodat HaKodesh is only the "Katzar."<ref>Shem HaGedolim (Gedolim, Shin 19)</ref> However, some modern editions include a collection of quotations from the "Aroch" from Rishonim who did have it.
# Some Rishonim refer to Avodat HaKodesh as "Torat HaBayit" informally.<ref>Shem HaGedolim (Gedolim, Shin 19)</ref>
=Shu"T HaRashba=
# The Rashba wrote thousands of Teshuvot.
# The extant Shu"t HaRasha are a condensed version of the original.<ref>Yad Malachi (Klalei HaRashba 6)</ref>
# Due to the fact that the Shu"t HaRashba printed in the times of the Beit Yosef was mistakenly attributed to the [[Ramban]], the Beit Yosef refers to it as Shu"t Ha[[Ramban]], even though he knew it was really the [[Rashba]]'s. This way, one who seeks to look up the source will know which Sefer to open.<ref>Hakdama to Beit Yosef</ref>
=Misc.=
# The Rashba also wrote a commentary on the Aggadot of Shas.<ref>Shem HaGedolim (Gedolim, Shin 19)</ref>
# He also had a hand in Kabbalah.<ref>Shem HaGedolim (Gedolim, Shin 19)</ref>
