SU‐E‐T‐271: Direct Measurement of Tenth Value Layer Thicknesses for High Density Concretes with a Clinical Machine

Purpose: Use of high density concrete for radiation shielding is increasing, trading cost for space savings associated with the reduced tenth value layer (TVL). Precise information on the attenuation properties of high‐density concretes is not readily present in the literature. A simple approximatio...
