Published standards

The standards your projects are measured against

Each entry is quoted from its source and linked to it. The full set is in the standards reference.

BS 8203 — relative humidity limit for a subfloor

UK practice following BS 8203 treats a subfloor as dry enough for resilient floor coverings when hygrometer readings do not exceed 75% relative humidity (65% RH for solid timber coverings), measured with a hygrometer sealed to the surface so that it reaches equilibrium with the base.

RH limit, resilient floor coverings75 % RH
RH limit, solid timber floor coverings65 % RH

“The base can be considered dry enough to install most floorcoverings if a series of tests produce readings not exceeding 75% R.H. (65% R.H. for solid timber floorcoverings).”

BS 8204 — surface regularity classes SR1 to SR3

BS 8204 defines three surface regularity classes for screeds and concrete bases, SR1, SR2 and SR3, measured as the maximum deviation below a 2 m straightedge placed directly on the surface.

SR1 (max deviation under 2 m straightedge)3 mm
SR2 (max deviation under 2 m straightedge)5 mm
SR3 (max deviation under 2 m straightedge)10 mm
straightedge length2 m

“Surface regularity classes are given in BS 8204 as SR1, SR2 and SR3 relating to 3mm, 5mm and 10mm respectively.”

The hygrometer method for subfloor moisture

In UK practice a hygrometer is sealed to the subfloor inside an insulated box with butyl tape and left until the air under the box reaches equilibrium; at least 4 hours before the first reading on a 50 mm screed with the DPM under the screed, and 72 hours where the DPM lies below the base slab.

minimum time before first reading, 50 mm screed with DPM between base and screed4 hours
minimum time before first reading, DPM below the base slab72 hours

“For 50mm thick screeds, where the damp proof membrane is placed between the base and the screed, a period of at least 4 hours should be allowed before the first reading is taken. For thicker constructions i.e. where the damp proof membrane is placed below the base slab, a period of 72 hours should be allowed to elapse before the first reading.”

CFA guidance — the subfloor is the installer’s first responsibility

The CFA Guide to Contract Flooring requires the base to be a clean, sound, level surface that is strong enough to carry the preparation materials and the floor finish, mechanically prepared and dust free, and dry enough to give a hygrometer reading of no more than 75% relative humidity.

maximum hygrometer reading before laying a floor finish75 % RH

“Before the application of the floor finish a solid (cementitious or similar) base must be sufficiently dry to show a hygrometer reading not greater than 75% Relative Humidity when tested in accordance with the British Standard Code of Practice.”
