What Is Pressure-Treated Lumber?
Pressure-treated lumber is dimensional wood that has been infused with preservative chemicals under controlled pressure to increase resistance to decay, fungal growth, and insect damage. Treatment levels and preservative types determine the appropriate use category.
Ground Contact Lumber
Ground contact pressure-treated lumber is treated to higher preservative retention levels for use in direct soil contact or high-moisture environments. This category is commonly used for posts, sill plates, structural supports near grade, and exterior framing exposed to weather.
Borate-Treated Lumber
Borate-treated lumber is typically used for interior structural framing applications where protection against termites and wood-destroying insects is desired. It is not intended for direct exposure to weather or ground contact but provides enhanced durability within protected assemblies.
Common Applications
- Sill plates and bottom plates
- Deck framing and exterior structural members
- Fence posts and structural posts
- Interior framing requiring insect protection
Compliance & Treatment Standards
Pressure-treated lumber must meet applicable treatment standards and building code requirements. Treatment retention levels, incising, and approved use categories should align with engineered plans, local building codes, and manufacturer specifications.
