Abstract:The background radiation of Maryland School Complex was taken using RS-125 hand-held gamma spectrometer. The average concentration of the measured radionuclides were 19.16, 46.14, 165.00 Bq/kg for 238U, 232Thand 40K, respectively. The average value of measured dose rate and the estimated dose rate were 44.93 and 43.55Bq/kg. The mean values of the estimated radiological parameter were 53.45, 213.78μSv/y for indoor and outdoor annual effective dose. The excess lifetime cancer risk averaged 0.17, the hazard indic… Show more
