2. Concrete moisture meter - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Concrete_moisture_meter

   Concrete meters have evolved from the successful wood moisture meter as flooring contractors tried to use their wood meters to measure the moisture in concrete. Concrete moisture meters are designed to detect moisture to a depth of 1 inch (25 mm) of a concrete slab in order to avoid the rebar reinforcement below the surface. [1]

3. Moisture meter - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moisture_meter

   Moisture content is measured in the same manner as wood and displayed in Wood Moisture Equivalent, or WME. WME is the theoretical moisture content that the substrate would contain if it were wood. This ability to locate and measure moisture anomalies can help manage and control indoor air quality by locating and preventing hidden mold growth ...

4. Epoxy moisture control system - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Epoxy_moisture_control_system

   There are two industry standards for measuring moisture vapor emissions in concrete: calcium chloride testing (ASTM F1869) and relative humidity testing (ASTM F2170). [3] Epoxy moisture control systems can be used when these tests determine that the moisture vapor emissions need to be remediated in order to install the selected floor covering ...

5. Janka hardness test - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Janka_hardness_test

   When testing wood in lumber form, the Janka test is always carried out on wood from the tree trunk (known as the heartwood), and the standard sample (according to ASTM D143) is at 12% moisture content and clear of knots. [3] The hardness of wood varies with the direction of the wood grain. Testing on the surface of a plank, perpendicular to the ...

6. Damp proofing - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Damp_proofing

   Damp proofing in construction is a type of moisture control applied to building walls and floors to prevent moisture from passing into the interior spaces. Dampness problems are among the most frequent problems encountered in residences. DPC visible between concrete foundation and brickwork.

7. Moisture vapor transmission rate - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moisture_vapor...

   Moisture vapor transmission rate (MVTR), also water vapor transmission rate (WVTR), is a measure of the passage of water vapor through a substance. It is a measure of the permeability for vapor barriers .
