Abstract
Some factors that have influence upon the radon concentration in dwellings are discussed in this paper. Measurements of the exhalation rates from different building materials are presented together with calculations of indoor radon concentrations. The influence of wind and temperature upon the ventilation rate and radon concentration in a test-house have been measured, and the effect of airing and artificial ventilation upon the radon concentration is discussed.Keywords
