    In which layer of the wall does condensation take place?
    As air moves through the wall and the moisture in it condensates, the condensate moves to the next surface in
    the direction of air movement. the surface on which the condensate is deposited is called the condensing
    surface. therefore, condensate takes place on the outer surface of the concrete.
