About This Product
Pressure-Treated Pine meets the highest grading standards for strength and appearance. This double treated Ground Contact lumber must be used for applications where treated lumber is difficult to maintain, repair or replace. Treated lumber is critical to the performance and safety of an entire system or construction such as deck joists, beams and ledger boards. An additional benefit of treated lumber is its defense against rot and insect infestation for its vast majority of applications. Southern yellow pine is responsibly manufactured, safe, and environmentally friendly when used as directed.Treated wood is typically still wet when it's delivered to The Home Depot or job site. As it dries, you should expect slight changes in width and length. As lumber dries, it may split, cup and warp. This is more likely to occur to occur in lower-grade boards, where knots and uneven grains are already present. Each piece of lumber is unique and carries physical characteristics that may include the following: knots, warping, shrinkage, swelling and/or splitting. Nominal Dimensions: 2 in. x 10 in. x 8 ft. (Actual Dimensions: 1.5 in. x 9.5 in. x 8 ft.)

Questions & Answers
Is 2” X 10” X 16’ strong enough for stairs
John, A 2 in. x 10 in. board can be used in some stair applications, but it depends on the stair span, rise and run, and how the stringers are cut. In many cases, building codes and common practice recommend 2x12 lumber for cut stair stringers to ensure enough strength remains after notching. We recommend checking your local building code requirements and span/load guidelines before building. If you’re unsure, a local inspector or the Home Depot Pro Desk can help confirm the right size for your project.

40 I just purchased a bundle and got them nearly $3.00 per board cheaper in the bundle.
How long does it take to dry almost completely? I found one that seemed dry to touch and lighter than others but failed the droplet test as beads formed on the surface. It did show a visible water stain when i rubbed it than the other wet to touch ones.
AshG, the duration for wood to dry varies based on the climate and the amount of sunlight it receives. In the summer, pressure-treated lumber exposed to direct sunlight can dry out within a few days. In cool and damp conditions or when shaded, the drying process will be significantly prolonged.
What is the maximum span for this material
AwConstruction123, the span of this specific material will be 16 feet. If you are looking for span spacing on your project, please contact our Customer Service Department at 844-529-5882 or provide a description of what you are looking for to ufpretailcs@ufpi.com.
What is the weight of this 2" x 10" x16ft lumber?
Jelong, This lumber weighs approximately 42 lbs., depending on how wet the wood is.

Yes, I have done this before when I was in a vehicle too small and they also might have a manual saw available too so you can do it yourself if they are busy.
I believe all Home Depots will make one cross cut per board for free, additional cuts would be at additional cost.
Is this 2x12x16 good for a 48inch high retaining wall.? I know is pressure treated and seems to be good. Just wondering
Jose, Be sure to check the end tag of the product. For retaining walls, you will need a UC4B- Ground Contact Heavy Duty product as it is designed for retaining wall applications.
I would not personally build a retaining wall with these. They are thin and would flex depending on post spacing and the weight of material they were trying to "retain".
how many boards are in a bunk or bundle
