Collective Effective Dose Received by the Population of Egypt From Building Materials

Journal of Radiological Protection, 2008
Natural radioactivity due to the presence of 226Ra, 232Th and 40K in selected building materials (cement, sand, bricks, gypsum and ceramic) used in Egypt was measured using a gamma-ray spectrometer with an HPGe detector. The average activity concentrations observed in different building materials ranged from 10.0 +/- 1.3 to 109 +/- 6,
