QEST Platform 5.1 Documentation
Applies to QESTLab

There are a number of elements common to every moisture content test in QESTLab. This article describes the functionality of these elements. For differences between specific standards or test method bodies please refer to the article specific to that test method or standards body.

Worksheet Layout

QESTLab worksheets for this test type are laid out in the following manner. Note that:

Individual elements may be named slightly differently for the purposes of familiarity in different regions but the main elements remain largely the same.
The units shown on the test will differ based on the units configuration of the QESTLab system in use and potentially document level options.

Equipment

The following equipment can be selected on the worksheet:

Equipment label	Qest ID	Notes
Balance	30005
Oven	30004
Moisture Tin	30125	Applicable only when using Kiosk Mode

Calculated Results

To calculate a moisture content the following masses are required:

Tray
Tray and Wet Sample
Tray and Dry Sample. Multiple Tray and Dry Sample masses may be required to satisfy the test method requirements for constant dry mass.

Kiosk Mode

This test screen supports kiosk mode data entry and balance interfacing for all masses.

Additionally, the specimen grid supports moisture tin association for navigation to the test screen by scanning a moisture tin barcode for capturing the dry masses.

Bulk Entry

All data entry for moisture content tests can occur on the bulk entry screen and will map directly to the full worksheet.
