The only way to determine the weight of a 12 foot long 2 x 6 is to weigh it. It can not be calculated mathematically due to varying wood densities and moisture content.
There are several test devised, pertaining to moisture content in concrete! Everything from vapor emissions to relative humidity. By Far the most reliable is ASTM 2170 that measures the relative humidity inside the concrete. Unusual question for a lay person, since most people don't even consider concrete is a giant sponge! Don't fall for ASTM 1869 as a test method --- Very cheap, but not worth much. If someone shows up with a surface moisture meter for testing --- Show him the Door!
No. This would mean that the moisture content of the air was less than zero.
Depends on the moisture content and the type of soil.

Relative humidity indicates the moisture content of the atmosphere measured as a percentage of saturation. It is the ratio of the amount of water vapor present in the air to the maximum amount of water vapor that the air can hold at a specific temperature and pressure.
To determine the moisture content of soil, you can use a soil moisture meter or follow the oven-drying method. With a soil moisture meter, insert the probe into the soil and read the moisture level displayed. For the oven-drying method, weigh a soil sample, dry it in an oven, and weigh it again to calculate the moisture content.
The two methods used to determine the moisture content of wood are the oven-drying method, in which a wood sample is weighed before and after drying in an oven, and the moisture meter method, which uses an electronic device to measure the electrical conductivity of the wood to estimate the moisture content.

To determine if wood is dry, you can use a moisture meter to measure the moisture content of the wood. Dry wood typically has a moisture content of around 10-15. Additionally, dry wood will feel lighter, sound hollow when tapped, and may have visible cracks or splits.
A moisture meter is commonly used to measure the moisture content of various materials like wood, soil, or grain. These meters work by calculating the electrical conductivity or resistance of the material to determine its moisture level accurately.
