The ratio of the mass of water vapor to the mass of dry air in a given moist air sample usually expressed in grams per pound (grams per kilogram) of dry air is the C. Saturation factor #42. To effectively dry wood sub flooring below sheet vinyl flooring, restorers might need to B. remove and discard the vinyl covering #43. Water vapor pressure always seeks D. equilibrium #44. At a humidity ratio of 45 gpp (6.4 g/kg) and a temperature of 60 F (16 C), the relative humidity is B. 36% #45. After finished wood flooring has been dried to acceptable moisture content A. appropriate acclimation time may be required before refinishing #46. When carpet has been affected by sewage and should be removed and any materially interested party disagrees, restorers can choose to B. clean and save the carpet if possible
#56. Water intrusion where a significant amount of water is trapped or bound within low evaporation building materials or assemblies, may require longer drying time is defined as D) class 4 #57. Materials continue to absorb and desorb water vapor until they have reached D) equilibrium with the environment #58. Drying equipment should remain in operation on site until D. affected materials meet predetermined drying goals #59. The potential ease of water vapor to pass through a material is b. permeability (had different answer but this makes more sense) #60. For safety, air movers shall be equipped with C. a grounded electrical plug #61. The drying goal for solid hardwood flooring is within A. 2-4 percentage points of the dry standard #62. Generally, the drying system that creates the lowest atmospheric vapor pressure is D. desiccant dehumidification #63.
