TRAMEX TALKS - ROBERT HIGGINS, best processes for detecting moisture in concrete

Robert Higgins, a renowned concrete expert consultant, explains the best processes for detecting moisture in the concrete. All tests can be good when performed correctly, but the accurate interpretation is key for them to be meaningful. Some tests can be more misleading than helpful if not fully understood. Not all tests will give the data necessary to help avoid moisture-related problems occurring at the time of installation. And this is exactly when the majority of moisture-related problems occur.

Tramex Talks - John Hull - Dec Scanner and Commercial Roof Moisture Surveys

John Hull, the President of Gulf Infrared, LLC, talks about the Tramex Dec Scanner and the necessity of commercial roof moisture surveys. Currently, only approximately 32% of commercial roofs were torn off and replaced actually needed to be. So, two-thirds of the commercial roofs that were torn and thrown in landfills could have been candidates for repair, if proper moisture testing was implemented. This has huge environmental implications from unnecessary roof replacements, and some states have begun to look at and implement mandatory roof moisture testing.
