Abstract:
This paper will discuss measured radon concentrations in public institutions, schools and hospitals in three cities: Banja Luka. Prijedor and Trebinje. The reason why these three cities were chosen is the geogenic potential, which is very heterogeneously expressed in these three environments. The area of the city of Banja Luka showed a pronounced radon potential in certain locations, Trebinje in almost all measured areas and the area of the city of Prijedor in all measured locations showed a low level of radon potential. The measurement was made with Gamma 2 detectors with an exposure time of 3 months in the winter-spring period, when the highest concentrations of radon in closed spaces were expected. After exposure, the detectors were read in accredited laboratories in Norway. The results showed that there are differences in the obtained results, i.e. that radon concentrations are higher in schools compared to hospitals in all three cities. The locations of the institutions where the measurements were made are located on land with a similar composition for each city. The results of this work will confirm that one of the reasons for the difference in radon concentration may be the way the buildings were built.
