Controlling Wood Deterioration in Waterfront Structures
Damage to wooden marine structures in the United States is conservatively estimated at $500 million annually. About half of this damage is below water, where marine borers invade untreated and improperly installed pressure-treated piles and timbers. Above water, decay fungi and insects exact their toll, because poor construction practices make wood vulnerable to attack. The report discusses research at the Forest Research Laboratory, Oregon State University, which is helping to reduce wood deterioration.
