On several logical, engineering, and scientific levels, the 3-pound recommendation for MVER is severely flawed, invalid, and meaningless as a relevant criterion for the installation of flooring materials on concrete slabs.
Why Three Pounds?
The results of the MVER test are signficantly affected by ambient conditions both above and below the slab.
Why Three Pounds?
MVER tests run at the same location can indicate that the slab is either acceptable or unacceptable for flooring installations independent of any slab or concrete property.
