Preliminary tests conducted in New South Wales, to investigate value of several soil coverings in reducing moisture movement from soil to floor show that irrespective of soil moisture barrier used, sufficient water vapor can eventually find its way into sub-floor spaces to raise equilibrium moisture content of floor boards to at least 20%; if condensation occurs as well, danger level of 24% is likely to be passed in 4 to 7 mo and some ventilation is necessary to dissipate moisture to outside air.
