Wood moisture meter / pinless / in-line

WoodWatch has been designed specifically with Acoustic energy (AE) functionality and is a non-destructive tool to indicate the risk of mechanical damage to wood.

Buildings, structures and individual items are in a constant state of decay. In the particular case of wood internal stresses are considered to be one of the main factors which contribute to deterioration. Physical changes in objects, and hence damage, are induced by various factors in their environment such as variations in temperature and relative humidity (RH). In order to manage and control the changes in conditions preventative conservation techniques can beneficially be applied.

AE is defined as sound waves released due to micro-damage in a material undergoing deformation. These sounds cover a frequency range which extends far beyond human hearing capabilities. Despite its unique characteristics AE monitoring has not been used to routinely record stresses in wooden cultural objects and works of art until now.
