In production, the Drying-up method and
Electrical method are generally used.
With the Drying-up method, a
woodsample is weighed before being
placed in an oven to dry. The weight
dierence is then measured and
compared to a Moisture Content Index.
This method is very precise but time
consuming and mostly applicable to
laboratory use.
The Electrical method, measures the
electrical resistance in wood according to
moisture content and can be easily used
in workshops, construction-sites and so
on.
