Rapid RH probe out of calibration?

[CC Solutions]

Let's get Jason's thoughts.

I'd like to know if the probe's permeability is calibrated to allow the concrete below the probe to dry at the same rate as the rest of the slab.

Was this considered during the design? I understand we can drill a hole, let the concrete equilibrate and take a reading, but if you leave the hole wide open it will dry faster than if you cap the hole. What we really want (if we are trending the concrete moisture) is the hole to dry at the same speed as the rest of the slab. I don't know if we have thought that far into the process.....
