RADON REMEDIATION DESIGN CONSIDERATIONS OF A NEW JERSEY SCHOOL BUILDING

摘要

Designing radon mitigation systems for commercial buildings or schools is significantly more complicated than designing for residential buildings. This paper describes the methodology used in designing a radon system for an 18,000 sf school building with radon levels throughout the building that were well above the EPA guideline. The remediation design was based on sub-slab communication testing. The remediation system was installed as per this design and the system effectively reduced the radon levels well below the EPA guideline.
