How to Find How Thick Your Concrete Slab Is

Slab thickness matters for depth-specific RH testing and for the flooring installation that follows. Jason Spangler, Vice President of Sales for Wagner Meters, walks through how to measure a slab’s depth accurately, on new projects and on older construction.

The video covers:

• Why slab thickness matters for depth-specific moisture testing, and how it affects your results
• High-end measuring devices, what’s available, and whether the accuracy is worth the cost
• Visual cues and trenching, and what to look for to read a slab’s depth
• A DIY drill-bit test for gauging thickness without specialized equipment
