I have recently layed a 100mm concrete slab for living room floor and wish to lay a wooden laminate floor over it, but when is it cured (dried out) enough to put the laminate floor down?
To soon and I feel I will be preventing the slab from dry out because of the slab dpm and the laminate moisture barrier sheet will stop evaporation.
advice appreciated!
Thanks in advance.....

Yep, you need all the moisture out of the slab, so not to cause any damp underneath the flooring.
So it then depends on environmental conditions, how dry/warm is the room/area.
I would say give it 28 days in dry conditions.
