RE: Seeking background data on cinder block

["Flanigan, Floyd" <Floyd.Flanigan@nmcco.com>]

Tony,

This is going to depend heavily on the manufacturer of the blocks, the location from which the production material came from and the process of manufacture. I'm not sure if there is a generic value which can be applied universally. Anybody out there have a better handle on this? Mine is tenuous at best.

Subject: Seeking background data on cinder block





Radsafers:  I'm looking for referenceable data on the naturally 

occurring activity concentrations in cinder block.  The activity range 

provided in NCRP 94 is very broad and I don't have any previous analysis 

results for this material.  I would not be releasing any material or 

performing final status with the data.  If someone could lead me to or 

provide a resource for this information I'd very much appreciate it.  

Thanks in advance.  Tony
