Abstract
With the move to tighter and tighter buildings for energy conservation purposes, issues with moisture are becoming more prevalent. Currently, a lot of attention is being given to how to properly seal the building, where to apply vapor barriers/retarders, and where the insulation should be installed. Another issue of import is the moisture contained within the building materials themselves when they are first installed, as well as the moisture that they absorb before the building is “dried in.”
