[QUOTE="GYPSY400, post: 455052, member: 8599"] CDX is not pressure treated. It is meant for light exposure in exterior building ( sheeting) and can withstand "some " moisture until it is covered by shingles or siding etc. It would be wise to use 1/2" or 5/8" to save some weight and support it with some aluminum angle iron. Either way, seal up the sheets after fitting them with spar urethane or possibly " old timers mixture "... I've learned the hard way that untreated decking covered in carpet only lasts about 5-6 years. Sent from my SM-G903W using Tapatalk [/QUOTE]
