The document includes specific technical requirements, such as a mandatory prohibition on using concrete slats and a requirement to use stainless steel (SS) for all nails, bolts, screws, and connectors that may contact treated lumber. The city emphasizes minimizing corrosion from ACQ treatment chemicals and requires contractors to use stainless steel materials, with a requirement to communicate in writing if such materials are unavailable.
