Think Twice Before Using Pressure Treated Lumber - Here's Why

Pressure treated lumber failed on me. I will show you why pressure treated lumber can be a bad choice when you need strength. I will show you a much stronger type of lumber that could be a better alternative in some cases. I used blocks of pressure treated lumber to set a shipping container on. It seemed like a good choice to be out in the weather since it is designed to resist decay. Those failed. I set up my other shipping container the same way, except I used a different kind of lumber. It is holding up perfectly. I have a story about the type of wood that is used for making pressure treated lumber.
