摘要:Research findings of natural radioactivity of materials widely used in industrial and civil construction, are presented. The research is carried out according complex techniques which include measurement and calculation of radiation parameters establishing natural radioactivity of materials – specific radioactivity of 226Ra, 232Th, 40K, summarised specific radioactivity, equivalent dose rate and radon flow density. Finish and masonry materials were used as principle objects of the research. The obtained findings allow to make a conclusion that all the studied materials are related to the first class and may be used unrestricted. Comparison with foreign data is provided. Correlation between radiation parameters is established. The data received may be deployed for comparative analysis of the Russian and European approaches to assessment of radiation safety to use the studied types of building materials.
