Concrete deck moisture problems continue to plague the roofing industry

Abstract
Newly poured and, in some instances, existing structural concrete roof decks present unique moisture migration problems for the roofing industry. This issue is not new—the industry has been facing it for years, and several authors and I have written numerous articles in Professional Roofing and other publications about it. Over time, the roofing industry has advanced its knowledge of moisture in concrete roof decks and how to best address it. And NRCA has updated its best practice guidelines for successfully dealing with structural concrete roof decks’ moisture.
