Determining The Measuring Strength of Concrete with A Concrete Moisture Meter
Concrete moisture meters and the measurement of accurate levels of moisture in a concrete slab is essential due to many different reasons. Within a given slab, the different areas may not dry evenly. Therefore, moisture tests are carried out for the different slab areas to ensure proper working and use. Moisture may cause the degradation of the organic flooring or other materials that may be placed on concrete. Further, it can deteriorate the quality of the flooring itself and may also invite the growth of moulds. Rebar reinforcement can also be avoided beneath the surface by measuring the moisture content of concrete using a concrete moisture meter . The Concrete Moisture Meters for Testing and Investigation According to the “ASTM F2170” standard, all the concrete slabs should be tested before their installation and use for the moisture content regardless of their grade or age. A concrete moisture meter can check the content or moisture level at ...
