Exposure in mSv/h

Exposure is done at the floor, in the center of each room and in the same source's vertical plane.

1- Point isotropic source was considered.

2- Build-up factors for gamma energies over 500 keV were calculated using Taylor's equation.

3- Build-up factors for gamma energies between 100 keV and 500 keV were calculated using Trubey's table.
