The Slab Sets the Schedule: How Ambient Conditions Decide Whether Concrete Dries and How to Prove It presented by Jason Spangler, Vice President of Sales, Wagner Meters.

A practical session for flooring contractors on why concrete moisture, not the calendar, decides when a floor is ready and how to prove it on every job.

• Why a "dry" slab can still wreck a floor: how concrete actually dries from the inside out, and why a dry-feeling surface tells you nothing about what's happening below.
• The four ambient forces that control your timeline: how temperature, humidity, airflow, and dew point speed up, stall, or even reverse a slab's drying.
• Measuring what actually matters: ASTM F2170 in-situ RH testing and continuous monitoring that tell you when a slab is genuinely ready to seal.
• Turning data into protection: documenting moisture conditions to cut callbacks, schedule with confidence, and shield your reputation when the finger-pointing starts.
