Tim,
I am working on a residential project in McAllen, TX (South Texas) and have a couple of questions. Do I NEED to use treated lumber as my base on my stud walls? I see many houses that are using untreated lumber. Thank you!

Ruben,
The code is pretty specific about this. Simply see what it says about lumber in contact with masonry surfaces, *especially* foundation slabs!
