Kovler (2012) investigated whether the utilization of coal fly ash in concrete construction presents a radiation hazard. The results showed that although radon exhalation rate of concrete containing coal fly ash can be sometimes slightly higher, radon emanation coefficient was lower. Also, the radioactivity concerns of the soil and crop produce ...

Class C and F fly ashes were used in this research project. Currently, more than 50% of the concrete placed in the U.S. contains fly ash. Dosage rates vary depending on the type of fly ash and its reactivity level. Typically, Class F fly ash is used at dosages of 15% to 25% by mass of cementitious material and Class C fly ash at 15% to 40%.
