Natural Radioactivity of Building Materials Used in the Christchurch Urban Area
The natural gamma radioactivity of a variety of common building materials in Christchurch has been measured by gamma spectroscopy. Using conversion factors from the literature, relative dose rate indices for the various building materials were calculated and compared. An increasing order of radioactivity concentration was found from timber to compressed limestone to brick products. These levels are however less than the acceptable limits of radioactivity based on some overseas criteria suggested as building standards. (Atomindex citation 17:024758)
