Moisture in wood structures must be monitored throughout the entire construction process. By measuring the wood’s moisture content, you can better track how moisture levels change and reduce the risk of moisture becoming trapped in the structure.
With the right measurement solution, you can check the moisture content on-site, track measurements over time, and document the results throughout the various stages. If needed, moisture content can also be remotely monitored at multiple construction sites simultaneously.
In this article, we’ll walk you through how to use moisture content measurement throughout the construction process—from the delivery of lumber to the monitoring of timber structures.
