Wood preservation
Scope:
This Series of Standards consists of five Standards, as follows:
- CSA O80.0, General requirements for wood preservation, specifies requirements and provides information applicable to the entire Series of Standards.
- CSA O80.1, Specification of treated wood, is intended to help specifiers and users of treated wood products identify appropriate requirements for preservatives for various wood products and end use environments.
- CSA O80.2, Processing and treatment, specifies minimum requirements and process limitations for treating wood products.
- CSA O80.3, Preservative formulations, specifies requirements for preservatives not referenced elsewhere. The Technical Committee on Wood Preservation intends that CSA O80.3 will be used to accommodate additional preservative formulations (if any) in future editions of this Series of Standards.
- CSA O80.4 has been withdrawn.
- CSA O80.5, CCA Additives — Utility Poles, specifies requirements for preparation and use of CCA preservative/additive combinations for utility poles permitted by CSA O80.1 and CSA O80.2.
