Shielding Design Recommendation:

Shielding design goals referencing NCRP 147 "Structural Shielding Design for Medical X-ray Imaging Facilities" Model NT/Pd

(P = 0.02 mGy/week in an uncontrolled areas, 0.1 mGy/week for controlled areas) requires lead thicknesses 1/64 inch to 1/32 inch. This excludes floor and ceiling concrete thicknesses. For the Nuclear Medicine department at MHVA, the department is on a terminal second floor requiring no shielding.

The shielding of the floor of this department should be verified as 6 inches of standard density concrete to meet shielding design requirements.

Areas labeled wall 1, wall 2a, wall 2b, wall 3a, wall 3b, and doors on the submitted room diagram will require the 1/32 inch lead shielding with a minimum of 7 feet in height. The area labeled viewing window on the room diagram requires lead equivalent glass meeting a minimum thickness of 1/64 inch of lead.

This is exceedingly important, since we must be primarily concerned for the safety of our patients. In this regard, OSHA Standards may protect worker safety and health, but they have minimal benefit for protecting the safety and health of our patients, due primarily to their differing medical conditions. Review this information as orientation with your personnel performing work on site. Where the requirements as outlined in this and section 01 00 00 are differing, the more stringent shall apply.

In the event the Contractor cannot reach the COR, he may contact the Alternate COR, Jacolby Darr, at 423-926-1171, ext. 7697. Inspections made by the COR are for the sole benefit of the Government and do not relieve the Contractor of any quality control responsibility.
