Abstract
The aim of this study was to investigate progress of the moisture profile in wooden cladding board as a result of short-term single-sided water soaking. The study was based on a theoretical approach, after which the modelling results were compared to those of earlier published studies. On the basis of the results, the transverse moisture profile could be predicted using a transport model in which the air pressure and other resistance factors were compensated using an apparent surface emission coefficient. The modelling results were almost identical to the experimental observations.
