Guide for Nuclear Meter Roof Moisture Surveys

Abstract

This report presents guidance for the conduct of roof moisture surveys using nuclear moisture meter devices. The technique presented is applicable to flat built-up roofs with insulation between the roof deck and membrane. Specific information is provided on how nuclear meters work, presurvey assembly of roof data, planning and conducting roof surveys, and data analysis. An example application of the data analysis procedures is included, as well as lists of nuclear meter equipment manufacturers and sources of nuclear meter survey services.
