Course description: AEC Daily: Radon Abatement: Controlling Radon Gas in Residential Construction
Radon is a colorless, odorless gas, a Class A carcinogen, the leading cause of cancer after smoking, and the leading cause of death for nonsmokers. It is found in soil, rock, and groundwater. If radon enters a home through slabs, basements, and crawl spaces, breathing it can lead to illness or even death. This course examines how the gas travels through soil and into structures and the various interception approaches and materials that can be utilized to prevent entry into inhabited spaces. It also highlights building code requirements and language that can assist with ensuring the correct radon interception systems are designed and installed effectively.
Recall the attributes and behavior of radon gas when designing residential projects
Determine the level of threat of radon and how it may enter a house to the detriment of occupant health
Design and integrate a 3D vent and drainage mat system where appropriate to intercept and dissipate radon to maintain a healthy indoor environment.
Determine whether subslab, crawl space, or subsurface encapsulation systems should be utilized and how they should be designed to promote occupant health and safety.
