There are two measurements for lumber - nominal and dimensional. What you find in big home improvement stores usually nominal unless it is specifically labeled "dimensional lumber." Nominal 2x4s are really 1-1/2"x3-1/2"x8' long. Dimensional would be the exact measurement of its name. Additionally, 1x4s and 1x6s, etc. actually 3/4"x3-1/2" and 5-1/2" respectively.

Pressure treated has its own measurements because it is injected with anti-rot chemicals, so it's more like 1-5/8" thick.
