the chemicals in the new pressure treated wood will react with the zinc

coating or aluminum, and will cause the nails to corrode, and they will

eventually disin () tegrate. hot dipped  galvanized ( as opposed to
electroplate 
galvanized) will work fine, as well as  stainless steel siding nails. if
its 
old pressure treated lumber, (the  chemicals were different until about
2 
years ago) electro galvanized will  work, but aluminum will not.

Wanted  to know if PT purlins are not supposed to be used with

roofing?
