The 10-year UK field trial of wooden fence posts and test stakes compared treated and untreated wood across a variety of metrics in ground contact applications- with a clear winner<\/h2>\n

The treated wood field trials was commissioned by the Wood Protection Association (WPA) and carried out by the Building Research Establishment (BRE) at two test sites: at BRE Garston, Watford, and Birnie Wood, Elgin, in the north of Scotland.<\/p>\n

It shows a substantial improvement in durability and resistance to decay when compared to untreated timber products.<\/p>\n

The majority of untreated wood posts had a service life of less than five years<\/h3>\n

After a decade, the preservative-treated posts in the trial are performing well, particularly incised spruce. Some opening of incisions and elevated moisture content has been noted, but without deterioration of the wood. After the completion of the initial 10-year term, the project has been extended for a further five years.<\/p>\n

The majority of the untreated wood posts at the sites have now completely failed due to fungal decay, with data suggesting an average service life of less than five years. The study also notably shows that posts made from larch are failing faster than any other species.<\/p>\n

\u201cThese results clearly show that untreated wood of any kind is not fit for purpose for ground contact applications,\u201d said WPA director Neil Ryan. \u201cOnly wood that has been correctly treated gives the performance required to ensure long-term success.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe study also dispels the myth that larch is durable and can be used in this way without a preservative treatment.\u201d<\/p>\n

Across all species and treatment types in the trial, there have been only isolated failures of treated posts. \u201cThis is not entirely unexpected after 10 years. These are clearly outliers on the bell curve of preservative performance, with others in the same species and preservative group rated zero \u2013 meaning they still have no visible decay present at all,\u201d said Ryan.<\/p>\n

Maximising potential of wood as a sustainable construction material<\/h3>\n

WPA chairman Steve Young said: \u201cThis landmark independent study demonstrates clearly that preservative treated wood works outdoors. It confirms that correctly treated wood is the only reliable choice for ground contact applications.<\/p>\n

\u201cAt a time when businesses\u2019 sustainability obligations are increasing, correct treatment allows them to use wood \u2013 the only endlessly renewable construction material<\/a> \u2013 for the maximum possible time.\u201d<\/p>\n

The WPA set up the field trial in 2015 in partnership with BRE and a group of industry sponsors, with the goal of helping develop industry standards, including BS 8417 and the WPA Code of Practice \u2013 to support WPA Benchmark quality approval schemes for treated wood, and to build market confidence in preservative-treated British softwood species<\/a>.<\/p>\n
