I think I recall you mentioning the CCA vs ACQ and or latest pressure treated wood preservatives. I worked in a lumber yard for 4 years and it was mainly SPF, SYP(Truss Plant materials) and pressure treated Chromated Copper Arsenate (CCA) which was .40 saturated. That was a Blue label. There was also a Red label .60, first time I saw it was when I delivered trusses to RK Miles up in Manchester VT, they had just built new lumber buildings out of 12"x 12" .60 CCA, I bought a cut off, they would not even give the scraps away LOL ! This was in the summer of '89. I'd never seen the .60 CCA before, .40= 40 years, .60= 60 years ground contact duration I believe. We used care with fresh materials from the plant, often times there was crystallized CCA on the boards.
I never knew that the ACQ reacted with steel, and I would imagine most sales people at building suppliers may not have the knowledge on these products, hence your experiences with them.
I thought that CCA was obsolete, good to know it is not. I would think that contacting a treatment plant like Holbrook in Albany, and or the one in Athens, would shed some info on what is available and how to get it, they are both wholesalers but we used to order from them, and others like Georgia Pacific, Weyerhauser, etc., for stock or customers. Holbrook stocked all kinds of lumber, I used to see redwood in there, that is as perfect as lumber gets.
Well that hunting camp and or the like is the occupancy classification you want, I probably should have not mentioned that here, but by now it is probably grandfathered etc.
