   A technician compares materials and nearby dry areas. This helps define the actual scope of the loss.

3. Address soaked layers

   Wet pad and damaged porous materials may need removal. The crew documents what was affected before opening it.

4. Track drying results

   Controlled drying continues until affected materials meet the project goal. The final record documents progress.
