1、Designation: E 1465 07aStandard Practice forRadon Control Options for the Design and Construction ofNew Low-Rise Residential Buildings1This standard is issued under the fixed designation E 1465; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in the case o

Scope1.1 This practice covers the design and construction of tworadon control options for use in new l

These unobtrusive (built-in) soil depressurizationoptions are installed with a pipe route appropriate for theirintended initial mode of operation, that is, fan-powered orpassive. One of these pipe routes should be installed during aresidential buildings initial construc

Specifications for thecritical gas-permeable layer, the radon systems piping, andradon entry pathway reduction are comprehensive and com-mon to both pipe routes.1.1.1 The first option has a pipe route appropriate for afan-powered radon reduction system. The radon fan should beinstalled after (

5、1) an initial radon test result reveals unaccept-able radon concentrations and therefore a need for an operatingradon fan or (2) the owner has specified an operating radon fan,as well as acceptable radon test results before occupancy. Fanoperated soil depressurization radon systems reduce indoorrado

6、n concentrations up to 99 %.1.1.2 The second option has a more efficient pipe routeappropriate for passively operated radon reduction systems.Passively operated radon reduction systems provide radonreductions of up to 50 %. When the radon test results for abuilding with an operating passive system a

7、re not acceptable,that system should be converted to fan-powered operation.Radon systems with pipe routes installed for passive operationcan be converted easily to fan-powered operation; such fanoperated systems reduce indoor radon concentrations up to99 %.1.2 The options provide different benefits:

8、1.2.1 The option using the pipe route for fan-poweredoperation is intended for builders with customers who wantmaximum unobtrusive built-in radon reduction and docu-mented evidence of an effective radon reduction system beforea residential building is occupied. Radon systems with fan-powered type pi

9、pe routes allow the greatest architecturalfreedom for vent stack routing and fan location.1.2.2 The option using the pipe route for passive operationis intended for builders and their customers who want unob-trusive built-in radon reduction with the lowest possibleoperating cost, and documented evid

10、ence of acceptable radonsystem performance before occupancy. If a passive systemsradon reduction is unacceptable, its performance can be sig-nificantly increased by converting it to fan-powered operation.1.3 Fan-powered, soil depressurization, radon-reductiontechniques, such as those specified in th

11、is practice, have beenused successfully for slab-on-grade, basement, and crawlspacefoundations throughout the world.1.4 Radon in air testing is used to assure the effectiveness ofthese soil depressurization radon systems. The U.S. nationalgoal for indoor radon concentration, established by the U.S.C

12、ongress in the 1988 Indoor Radon Abatement Act, is toreduce indoor radon as close to the levels of outside air as ispracticable. The radon concentration in outside air is assumedto be 0.4 picocuries per litre (pCi/l) (15 Becquerels per cubicmetre (Bq/m3); the U.S.s average radon concentration inindo

13、or air is 1.3 pCi/L (50 Bq/m3). The goal of this practice isto make available new residential buildings with indoor radonconcentrations below 2.0 pCi/L (75 Bq/m3) in occupiablespaces.1.5 This practice is intended to assist owners, designers,builders, building officials and others who design, manage,

14、 andinspect radon systems and their construction for new low-riseresidential buildings.1.6 This practice can be used as a model set of practices,which can be adopted or modified by state and local jurisdic-tions, to fulfill objectives of their residential building codes andregulations. This practice

15、 also can be used as a reference for thefederal, state, and local health officials and radiation protectionagencies.1.7 The new dwelling units covered by this practice havenever been occupied. Radon reduction for existing low riseresidential buildings is covered by Practice E 2121, or by stateand lo

16、cal building codes and radiation protection regulations.1.8 Fan-powered soil depressurization, the principal strat-egy described in this practice, offers the most effective andmost reliable radon reduction of all currently available strate-gies. Historically, far more fan-powered soil depressurizati
