Weird Circumstances

These two pieces of poured concrete block were measured last Friday morning and they were the same moisture content under the plaster setting.

As you can see-one piece of concrete is visibly wet and the other one looks dry.

Five days later, the figures go to maximum readings on both pieces at the plaster setting.

I tried them both at wood “shallow” using comparative scale.

They are both registering about the same again.

These types of readings are what you get when you do not use a proper concrete meter!!

So few restorers have concrete meters-time for the industry to get it together!
