Concrete Moisture Assessment

AECTL provides concrete moisture assessment services to evaluate the moisture condition of concrete slabs before the installation of flooring systems, coatings and other moisture-sensitive finishes. Our testing is performed in accordance with recognised ASTM standards and provides reliable information to help minimise the risk of moisture-related flooring failures.

Why Concrete Moisture Assessment?

Excess moisture within concrete can result in flooring failures, adhesive breakdown, blistering, coating delamination and other performance issues. Assessing the moisture condition of a concrete slab before installing floor coverings or protective coatings helps determine whether the slab is suitable for the intended application and whether additional drying time or remedial action may be required.

Non-Destructive Concrete Moisture Testing (ASTM F2659)

AECTL provides non-destructive concrete moisture testing in accordance with ASTM F2659. This method is used to rapidly assess the comparative moisture condition of concrete slabs without damaging the surface. It is ideal for preliminary investigations, moisture mapping and identifying areas that may require further assessment.
