Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies
(ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO
technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been
established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and
non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the International
Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.
International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.
The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards
adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an
International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent
rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
ISO 11665-3 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 85, Nuclear energy, nuclear technologies, and
radiological protection, Subcommittee SC 2, Radiological protection.
ISO 11665 consists of the following parts, under the general title Measurement of radioactivity in the
environment — Air: radon-222:
— Part 1: Origins of radon and its short-lived decay products and associated measurement methods
— Part 2: Integrated measurement method for determining average potential alpha energy concentration of
its short-lived decay products
— Part 3: Spot measurement method of the potential alpha energy concentration of its short-lived decay products
— Part 4: Integrated measurement method for determining average activity concentration using passive
sampling and delayed analysis
— Part 5: Continuous measurement method of the activity concentration
— Part 6: Spot measurement method of the activity concentration
— Part 7: Accumulation method for estimating surface exhalation rate
— Part 8: Methodologies for initial and additional investigations in buildings
The following parts are under preparation:
— Part 9: Method for determining exhalation rate of dense building materials
— Part 10: Determination of diffusion coefficient in waterproof materials using activity concentration measurement
