8. Additional shielding
The assumption for design of radioactive sources depot that use the highest
leakage dose rate (when the source got maximum activity) and with the maximum
number of sources for calculation to ensure the safety in all circumstances.
However, in practical, the radioactive source activity always decreases with time
(half-life of 74 days for Ir-192) and never use all source at the highest activiti at the
same time. So the Actual dose rate will much less than calculation in this document.
Radiation safety condition There for is always guaranteed.

Dimension of sources pit are 0.5m wide, 1.2m long and 0.2m wall thickness
of concrete,0.4m high for all around radiation shielding, it cover with 3.0mm
thickness of lead (Pb) reinforced with 1.5mm thick steel sheet and frame for
radiation shielding at top.
The 2m height surrounding fence which is settled at 2m distance from the
Storage depot (Pit) wall.
The place shall be at the distanced exceed 10 m from other working area.
To be at area under security surveillance and control.
Storage depot shall have security lock at door.
Storage depot shall have Radiation Warming Sign.
Limited Dose Rate Allowance for Public at the fence of the depot:
Referred to No. 19/2012/TT- BKHCN Circular on Controlling and Ensuring
Radiation Safety in Occupational Exposure and Public Exposure, Article 7 -
Designing radiationcovers, Paragraph 2: Radiological works must apply the
dose limit of occupationalradiation that is smaller than or equal to 3/10 of the
dose limit
Thedose limit of occupational radiation according to No. 19/2012/TT-
BKHCN:
1,000(Sv/year) * 3/10= 300 (Sv/year)
Intended the hours of Public under exposing 600 hours per year (For
Supervisor, NOT Radiation Worker, 02 hour/day, 300 days/year).
For Rawthane building, at specified depot location, Limited Dose Rate
Allowance for public 300/600 = 0.5 Sv/h (at Fence)
Radiation Haft Value Layer of the steel for Ir-192: T steel = 13.0 mm.
Radiation Haft Value Layer of the concrete for Ir-192: Tconcrete = 43.2
mm.
Radiation Haft Value Layer of the Lead (Pb) for Ir-192: T lead= 5.1 mm.
Thickness of Lead (Pb) on cover is 3mm.
The concrete wall thickness of of the depot for shielding radiation: d = 0.2m
The arrangement of depot to and depot dimension as show in drawing
attached.
