GAMMA RAY SHIELDING PROPERTIES OF MORTARS CONTAINING SLAG (thesis)
Technical Report
·
OSTI ID:4251846
The results of the tests of the gamma -ray shielding properties of mortars cortaining slag are prescrted. The use of slag as a fine aggregate may result in porous mortars. The shielding properties of this mortar are reduced as a result of this porosity. The use of fly ash in conjunction with slag as the fine aggregate in mortar shows an increase in the linear absorption coefficient of from 2.5 to 5%. The use of water to keep the mortars saturated resulted in an increase of from 5 to 7% regardless of the aggregate used. (W. L. H.)
