The QST Article from September 1989, "The Care and Feeding of an Amateur's Favorite Antenna Support - the Tree" says
Cadmium plated (but I think avoiding Copper is the main thing). The author also mentions removing when done. It's a pretty good

The Complete Guide To Tower Construction book. That's one chapter out of 36 - LOTS of info in there! Available from
