A study of natural radioactivity in some building materials in Nigeria
Building materials of different brands were assessed for the concentrations of 226Ra, 232Th and 40K using HPGe detector. The activity concentrations in the measured samples ranged from 27 ± 8 to 82 ± 8 Bq kg−1 for 226Ra, 41 ± 4 to 101 ± 8 Bq kg−1 for 232Th and 140 ± 8 to 940 ± 19 Bq kg−1 for 40K, re...
