Radon in soil gas — Exhalation tests and in situ measurements

Science of The Total Environment, 1985
Radon in soil can move into buildings resulting in high radon daughter concentrations. The foundation of a dwelling should be adapted to the radon "risk" which is determined by the radon concentration and the air permeability of the soil. Different measuring procedures are discussed in this paper, both in situ measurements of radon content and ...

Radioactivity and radon exhalation rates of building materials in The Netherlands

Science of The Total Environment, 1985
About 140 samples of building materials have been analysed by gamma spectrometry for their Ra-226, Th-232 and K-40 concentrations. The radon exhalation rate was measured from concrete slabs of different composition including fly-ash components. The activity concentrations of materials containing soil products, like clay bricks and concrete, proved to ...

Radon exhalation from granite countertops and expected indoor radon levels

Journal of Radioanalytical and Nuclear Chemistry, 2016
Radon (222Rn) exhalation rates from granite countertops were measured using a continuous radon monitor. The countertops could be separated in three groups according to radon their exhalation rates. However, even for a worst-case scenario (e.g. E ~ 1.10 Bq m−2 h−1, no air circulation and full tile home) the contribution to indoor radon concentration is ...

ASSESSMENT OF RADIOACTIVITY AND RADON EXHALATION RATE IN EGYPTIAN CEMENT

Health Physics, 2004
The cement industry is considered as one of the basic industries that plays an important role in the national economy of developing countries. Activity concentration of 238U, 232Th, and 40K in local cement types from different Egyptian factories has been measured using a shielded HPGe detector.

Radon and Thoron exhalation rate map in Japan

AIP Conference Proceedings, 2008
Measurements of radon and thoron exhalation rates have been done using the radon and thoron exhalation rate measuring instrument adopting the accumulation method. We obtained the 111 data in the 40 sites of the 14 prefectures in Japan. The arithmetic average value of the radon and thoron exhalation rates by all 111 data were obtained to be 8.6 mBq⋅m−2 ...
