The moisture content and consequently the dimensions of woodwork in buildings are affected by changes in atmospheric temperature and humidity and by the degree of artificial heat and ventilation provided. When the range of moisture conditions likely to occur in a building is known, the timber for flooring, joinery, furniture etc should be seasoned to the appropriate moisture content, which is usually the mean of that range.
