    2、year of last revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope1.1 This practice describes methods for reducing radonentry into existing attached and detached residential buildi

    3、ngsthree stories or less in height. This practice is intended for useby trained, certified or licensed, or both, or otherwise qualifiedindividuals.1.2 These methods are based on radon mitigation techniquesthat have been effective in reducing radon levels in a widerange of residential buildings and s

    6、as residential buildings changed or being changedby addition(s) or alteration(s), or both. The radon reductionactivities performed on new dwellings, while under construc-tion, before occupancy, and for up to one year after occupancy,are covered by Guide E1465.1.5 This practice also is intended as a

    7、model set of practices,which can be adopted or modified by state and local jurisdic-tions, to fulfill objectives of their specific radon contractorcertification or licensure programs. Radon mitigation per-formed in accordance with this practice is considered ordinaryrepair.1.6 The methods addressed

    8、in this practice include thefollowing categories of contractor activity: general practices,building investigation, systems design, systems installation,materials, monitors and labeling, post-mitigation testing, anddocumentation.1.7 The values stated in inch-pound units are to be regardedas standard.

    9、 The values given in parentheses are mathematicalconversions to SI units that are provided for information onlyand are not considered standard.1.8 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns, if any, associated with its use.

    21、2.2 backdrafting, na condition where the normal move-ment of combustion products up a flue (due to the buoyancy ofthe hot flue gases), is reversed, so that the combustion productsenter the building (see pressure-induced spillage).3.2.3 communication test, na diagnostic test to evaluatethe potential

Numerically, any combination of short-lived radondecay products in one litre of air tha

    37、t will result in the ultimateemission of 130 000 MeV of potential alpha energy. Thisnumber was chosen because it is approximately the total alphaenergy released from the short lived decay products in equi-librium with 100 pCi of Rn-222.3.2.29 working level month (WLM), na unit of exposureused to exp

    38、ress the integrated human exposure to radon decayproducts. It is calculated by multiplying the average workinglevel to which a person has been exposed by the number ofhours exposed and dividing the product by 170.4. Summary of Practice4.1 This practice describes methods for mitigating elevatedlevels

    39、 of radon in existing attached and detached residentialbuildings three stories or less in height.4.2 The mitigation process is described in terms of thecategories of activity associated with radon mitigation andincludes: general practices, building investigation, systemsdesign, systems installation,

    40、 materials, monitors and labeling,post-mitigation testing, and contracts and documentation.4.3 The systems installation category contains subsectionsdescribing the specific requirements applicable to each of thecomponents of radon mitigation systems, for example, radonsystem piping, radon fans, seal

    41、ing, electrical, etc.5. Significance and Use5.1 The purpose of the methods, systems, and designsdescribed in this practice is to reduce radiation exposures foroccupants of residential buildings caused by radon and itsprogeny. The goal of mitigation is to maintain reduced radonconcentrations in occup

    42、iable areas of buildings at levels as lowas reasonably achievable. This practice includes sections onreducing radiation exposure caused by radon and its progenyfor workers who install and repair radon mitigation systems.The goal for workers is to reduce exposures to radon and itsprogeny to levels as

    43、 low as reasonably achievable.5.2 The methods, systems, designs, and materials describedhere have been shown to have a high probability of success inmitigating radon in attached and detached residential buildings,three stories or less in height (see EPA, “Radon ReductionTechniques for Existing Detac

    44、hed Houses, Technical Guidance(Third Edition) for Active Soil Depressurization Systems”).Application of these methods does not, however, guaranteereduction of radon levels below any specific level, sinceperformance will vary with site conditions, construction char-acteristics, weather, and building

    45、operation.5.3 When applying this practice, contractors also shallconform to all applicable local, state, and federal regulations,and laws pertaining to residential building construction, re-modeling, and improvement.6. Safety Hazards6.1 Contractors shall comply with all OSHA, state and localstandard

    46、s or regulations relating to worker safety and occupa-tional radon exposure. Applicable references in the Code ofFederal Regulations include those in 2.2. Contractors also shallfollow occupational radon guidance in 2.2.6.2 In addition to OSHA standards and NIOSH recommen-dations, the following requi

    47、rements specifically applicable tothe safety and protection of radon mitigation workers shall bemet:E2121 1136.2.1 The contractor shall advise workers of the hazards ofexposure to radon and the importance of protective measureswhen working in areas of elevated radon concentrations. Inaddition, the c

    48、ontractor shall advise employees of other poten-tial hazards according to the hazard communication standardfor the construction industry (see OSHA, “Hazard Communi-cation Standard for the Construction Industry”).6.2.2 The contractor shall ensure that appropriate safetyequipment, such as ventilators,

    49、 respirators, hard hats, faceshields, and ear plugs, are available on the job site duringmitigation activities.6.2.3 Work areas shall be ventilated to reduce workerexposure to radon, dust, or other airborne pollutants.6.2.4 Consistent with OSHA permissible exposure limits,contractors shall ensure that employees are exposed to no morethan four working level months (WLM) over a 12-monthperiod (or the equivalent 68 000 pCi/L-h, when converted at anequilibrium ratio of 100 %. A WLM is calculated by multiply-ing the average working level to which a person has
