The important factor for wood used out of doors is that it is durable enough to resist fungal decay. This means using a hardwood classified as naturally durable (some are not) or a softwood given extended durability through pressure treatment.
Most timber decks are constructed from suitable pressure treated softwoods due to availability, ease of construction and cost effectiveness. Hardwoods offer a wider range of attractive colours. Hardwood and softwood do not relate directly with the physical hardness of each wood type. Hardwoods originate from broadleaved trees and softwood species from coniferous, evergreen trees.
