Its Foundation Grade treated lumber that's kiln dried after treatment. I decked a trailer about 5 years ago with 2x6 and 2x8 covering 16'. Crosswise planks. They are HEAVY, but so far there are NO cracks opened up from the wood drying. One plank has warped about a half inch in the middle of the span between frame rails.
