Abstract
The activity concentrations of natural radionuclides in sands, gravels , cements and in different kinds of concretes were measured by gamma-s pectrometric methods. The Rn-222 exhalation rate from concretes was me asured by closed chamber method and the emanation coefficient was calc ulated. Both used methods are described in detail and obtained results are discussed from point of view of allowed hygienic limits.
