14 Days, Preparing the Floor

Here you can see the kit we have for testing the moisture that is still in the concrete. The concrete must be dry to a certain point before we can install the SportGrain Plus gym floor. Here is how this kit works:

When ready to check the moisture in the concrete, weigh the dish that contains the white pellets (left) and record that weight on the lid.

Seal the dish in with the plastic container while the dish is on the concrete.

After a specified period, reweigh the contents of the dish and record that weight on the lid. A calculation based on the difference in beginning and ending weight will tell how much moisture the concrete still holds. As a geek, I find this to be a very cool method for determining the amount of water left in the slab.

When we get the results I will post them here. When the concrete is ready, the floor should start going down!

God is good!
