Some treatments may use water-soluble chemicals, prohibiting their use for exterior applications.
Some may adversely affect the structural strength of the wood under conditions of elevated temperature and humidity.
Design strength is less than that of nontreated lumber; amount of reduction in design strength varies with specific treatment.
