,A measurement of the differential pressure across a slab
is carried out by a mitigator on a day characterized by
gusts of wind. In comparison to measurements made on a
calm day, the windy day pressure differential readings
across the slab will:
Select one:
a. Remain constant
b. Increase
c. Fluctuate
d. Decrease
c. Fluctuate
, A mitigator is called to a house with a basement that has
a radon reading of 20 pCi/L. Half of the basement is
finished, and it has parquet flooring. Since all diagnostic
testing is to be performed, which of the following would
be the most logical test to perform FIRST?
Select one:
a. Suction-field extension testing in the unfinished portion
of the basement, with one or two vacuum-cleaner suction
holes, and with pressure-test holes at distances of 1, 5, 10,
and 15 feet in at least two directions away from each test
hole.
b. Suction-field extension testing, with one vacuum-
cleaner suction hole each in the finished and unfinished
portions of the basement, and four pressure-test holes
(one in each corner) in each portion.
c. Sub-slab radon concentration measurements, through
three or four sample holes each in the finished and
unfinished portions of the basement.
d. Suction-field extension testing in the unfinished port
d. Suction-field extension testing in the unfinished
portion of the basement, with one vacuum-cleaner
suction hole, and one to four pressure-test holes at
remote corners of the unfinished portion.
