i used treated plywood


Treated plywood and aluminum don’t mix. Any aluminum touching it will corrode over time. Use marine grade.

15 years of actual real world use, with absolutely no problems, as well as the building codes requirements on the use of certain chemicals in treated woods in direct contact with metals proves you wrong

while there weare certain types of toxic chemicals used to preserve wood many years ago that can and did react to direct contact with bare metal, these chemicals are no longer legal to use in the united states for treating wood. they rusted out nails holding walls to foundations, even galvanized nails and threaded rods had corrosive issues because of it and so they were quickly outlawed many years ago. but people love to keep spreading rumors about things they read on facebook but really dont know anything about
