The posts needed to be treated suitable for in ground application. The bearers needed to be treated suitable for in ground application because the deck was built close to the ground, and in some places the bearers would touch the ground.
The joists needed to be treated suitable for exterior use, as they did not touch the ground and air could circulate all around them.
The joists were spaced @ 450crs.(18″ O.C.)
