RADON ACTION LEVEL FOR HIGH-RISE BUILDINGS

Health Physics, 1999
Radon and its progeny are the major contributors to the natural radiation dose received by human beings. Many countries and radiological authorities have recommended radon action levels to limit the indoor radon concentrations and, hence, the annual doses to the general public.

Design of FTS for High-Rise Buildings

Zhilishchnoe Stroitel'stvo, 2023
The problems arising in the design of facade translucent structures (FTS) for high-rise buildings are considered. The main problem in the design is the correct choice of source data for setting external and internal boundary conditions. An incorrect or erroneous choice of these parameters can have a significant impact on the calculation model and the ...
