Determining moisture in wood
Moisture content is a decisive factor in the further processing and use of stored timber products. If wood is installed with the
wrong moisture content this may result in mechanical deformations (contracting and swelling) at the site where the material is
subsequently used, and therefore damage to pieces of furniture or entire supporting structures in buildings. Therefore, before
being made into furniture or supporting material by a craftsman, the suitability of the wood has to be assessed by measuring the
moisture content.
