How does dew point affect moisture in concrete?

If the concrete slab is at a temperature that is not at least 10 degrees F (5 degrees C) above the dew point of the room, condensation will form on the concrete, that cannot be seen by the naked eye, creating all sorts of issues with your coating or floor covering.

What is an acceptable moisture level in concrete floors or slabs?

3.5 to 4.5 % Moisture Content.

When using a Tramex Concrete Moisture Meter on clean new concrete 4.5% MC is considered "dry" in most conditions. In drier conditions, 4% MC is considered "dry". In Desert conditions generally, 3.5% is considered "dry". These numbers are %MC numbers on our Concrete Moisture Meters that are Calibrated specifically for concrete based on Gravimetric testing.
