Radioactivity of building materials
Kocíková, Pavla ; Goliáš, Viktor (advisor) ; Třískala, Zdeněk (referee)
The work examines the issue of radioactivity of construction materials. The introduction deals with the approach to radioactivity from the general and legislative points of view and its origin and division. It briefly mentions units of activity. It further deals with the issue of radioactivity in construction materials as such, the issue of emerging radon and emanation of construction materials. The second part of the work focuses on extreme cases of use of unsuitable construction raw materials in the building industry in the history of the Czech Republic, specifically houses in Jáchymov, aerated concrete produced in Poříčí near Trutnov and prefabricated houses START. The closing part deals with the system of evaluation of natural radionuclide content in construction materials under the applicable legislation and it briefly describes the procedure of manufacturers and importers of construction materials in case of exceeding limit values.
Greisens of Slavkovský les and their use as building and sculptural stone
Kocíková, Pavla ; Přikryl, Richard (advisor) ; Kuchařová, Aneta (referee)
Use of greisen - a rock mined primarily for (Sn-W) ore components - in sculpture and construction industry is typical for the Slavkovský les area and its surroundings. Material mined in the greisenized granite stock near Prameny for construction purposes was the source of stone used for a valuable Baroque sight - the Holy Trinity column in a nearby town of Teplá. Samples collected in the abandoned construction stone quarry were analysed for the study of properties of the original material mined in the locality Prameny. These samples were compared with the material collected from the monument in the pre-restoration research to prove the source locality of the original material. Provenance of the original material was determined on the basis of qualitative and quantitative petrographic and micro-structural characteristics. Micro-structural petrographic parameters of the studied samples were determined by the microscopic study using the Petrographic Image Analysis (PIA). Distribution of accessories and micro-structural characteristics were observed using the cathode-luminescence. Conventional index and mechanical parameters with respect to the use of the material in construction industry and sculpture were determined for the material collected in the abandoned quarry. Studied material collected in the...
