System Requirements
In applications where wood may be exposed to moisture, insects or fungal
organisms, preservative-treated wood can help ensure a building’s
durability. In this presentation, participants will learn about the
manufacturing process for pressure-treated wood, available products and
their differences, and how preserved wood is used in construction. Topics
will include types of preservative treatments and the required levels of
retention, as dictated by the end-use application, desired service life and
exposure conditions. AWPA Use Category standards and ICC-ES Report
Evaluations will be reviewed, and current issues concerning treated wood in
residential and commercial construction be discussed. Participants will also
receive free access to the Treated Lumber smartphone app.
