Why pressure treated plywood is not used for sheathing?
If the sheathing gets wet, it will soak through to the interior side, causing mold and rot of the framing. More on reddit.com

r/woodworking on Reddit: What kind of plywood is suitible for exterior use but is not pressure treated?
June 6, 2025 -

I'm putting together a shed from a kit. It has a metal frame for the base which is covered in plywood for the floor. The instructions for the base say you need to use at least 5/8" thick exterior plywood but it states specifically that use of pressure-treated wood is strictly forbidden and will void the warranty.

What kind of plywood is suitable for exterior use and contact with moisture but is not pressure treated?

What You Need to Know About Pressure-Treated Plywood - Culpeper Treated Lumber
April 10, 2025 - Additionally, pressure-treated plywood is widely used in concrete forming, which involves creating molds or frames for custom shapes. The end product is a hardened concrete structure, such as those needed for foundations, slabs, or walls. In these instances, builders will often use either 1/2-inch pressure-treated plywood, 5/8-inch pressure-treated plywood, 3/4-inch pressure-treated plywood, or 1-inch pressure-treated plywood.
