Default New Pressure Treated Lumber

My neighbor, noting that I was making repairs to my garage, advised
that the new process used in producing pressure treated lumber caused
nails, screws to fail, due to the chemicals used to treat the wood.

According to him, the new process treated wood was required after Jan
1, 2004.

He advised that apparently it didn't matter whether you used galvanized or
stainless fasteners, the chemical(s) used would cause the metal to corrode.
