Assessment of radiological hazards of travertine rocks as building materials
Introduction: Although travertine is now widely used as a building material, the effects of its radiological hazards to public health should be a matter of concern. Therefore, this study aimed to determine its radiological parameters with regard to human health. Material and Methods: In this research 10 travertine samples were collected ...
متن کاملnatural radioactivity of granites used as building materials in iran
the radionuclides 226ra, 232th and 40k concentrations measured as well as radiological parameters, for 14 granite samples that use in iran as building material were calculated. the measurements of the radioactivity concentrations were carried out at nuclear physics laboratory university of tabriz. this subject is important in environmental radiological protection, since granites are extensively...
متن کاملEstimating radiation dose from building materials
Background: Natural radioactivity in materials under certain conditions can reach the hazardous radiological levels. So, it becomes necessary to study the natural radioactivity in different materials to assess the dose for the population in order to know the health risks and to have a baseline for future changes in the environmental radioactivity due to human activities. Materials and ...
متن کاملStudy of gamma rays shielding parameters of some building materials used in Sudan
Background: This study investigated the γ-rays shielding properties of some building materials in Sudan has been investigated. Materials and Methods: Photons attenuation coefficients and half value layer (HVL) were experimented using Cs-137 and Co-60 sources. The measurements were performed to gauge the intensity of radiation when performed unshielded, the specific thickness of selected sample...
