Pressure Treated Lumber
(Continued from page 48)
AWPB LP-2 Quality Mark is for above ground use and is commonly purchased for sill stock in house construc{ion. Lumber marked AWPB LP-22 is for ground contact use. It is the LP-22 wood, treated to a minimum retention of 0.4 pounds per cu. ft., that WWPI is recommending for all outdoor projects.
The Uniform Building Code requires that wood used as permanent structural members in ground contact be pressure treated. All model building codes throughout the United States, as well as the Federal Housing Administration, recognize the use of wood pressure treated by waterborne preservatives in situations where wood may be subject to attack from fungi or termites.
In addition to the outdoor residential uses of treated wood, the western pressure treaters are actively promoting increased use of All Weather Wood Foundations (AWWF) built with their products as well as also promoting more exlensive use oftreated poles as the basic structural members of residential and commercial buildings.
