title: Standards for the radioactivity content of building materials, as recommended by a committee of the Health Council.
abstract: A committee of the Health Council of the Netherlands has developed a system of activity concentration limits in order to control the radiation dose coming from building materials. For each building material two limits have been calculated: one based on an upper bound for the additional individual dose equivalent and one based on an unconditionally acceptable additional dose equivalent for parts of the population.
