I always thought proper drying time was a month per inch of concrete,
i.e. longer than you expect.
You can put a secondary dpc on top of the slab.
where then would the moisture go?
Doesnt need to go anywhere.
Concrete sort of meeds CO2 to set tho, so its not great hermetically sealed
(I thought that was why DPM above the
slab was an /alternative/ to DPM below it.)

it should be clear by now to everyone that activist environmentalism
(or environmental activism) is becoming a general ideology about humans,
about their freedom, about the relationship between the individual and
the state, and about the manipulation of people under the guise of a
'noble' idea. It is not an honest pursuit of 'sustainable development,'
a matter of elementary environmental protection, or a search for
rational mechanisms designed to achieve a healthy environment. Yet
things do occur that make you shake your head and remind yourself that
you live neither in Joseph Stalins Communist era, nor in the Orwellian
utopia of 1984.
