It
is estimated that 25-30% of concrete surfaces are too damp to place
floor finishes to provide expected wearing life. What are the mechanisms
influencing vapor emission?

What
do we mean by a quantitative, objective, dynamic moisture test -
Why should these tests become part of your critical path? What ASTM
standard is out there for these test?

Are
design criteria important? What will resolve a moisture vapor emission
control in the design stages rather than at finish schedule time?
Are vapor barriers the same as vapor retarders?

Substrates
with excessive deviations or profiling may be too rough for hard surface
finishes. Engineering toppings or underlayments may be required to
smooth out substrates or deviations in flatness values.

What
are the mechanisms influencing vapor emission? What are the ancillary
sources of consequential moisture? Why do rennovated surfaces with
functional floor in place for years suddenly fail after rennovation
with or without vapor retarders(barriers)? In what way could vapor
emission contribute to indoor air quality issues (IAQ)?
