Porosity
A matter which is porous or contains pores which are able to absorb liquid. Subfloors, which are porous, are normally concrete and wood. If there is any doubt as to the porosity of a subfloor, put a few drops of water on the surface. If the water is quickly absorbed, the surface is porous. If the water remains on the surface, the surface is nonporous.
