Title: Assessing moisture in building materials
Subtitle: Part 2. Measuring moisture content

Ref Code: GR33/2
Authors: C Stirling

Abstract1: Moisture can enter buildings for many reasons and the resultant damage to materials and components is well documented. There is much published guidance on the identification and possible remedies for moisture defects. This Good Repair Guide provides building professionals with examples of analytical techniques which could be used to supplement visual information in the identification of moisture problems. The number of techniques is large so only a limited number can be reviewed. Part 2 discusses a range of techniques available for measuring moisture content in building materials.
