Radiation Protection Calculator

Information/instructions

The Rigips Radiation Protection Calculator determines the shielding attenuation performance of single- or double-layer constructions with Climafit Protekto. The calculations for radiation protection in drywall construction are based on the shielding attenuation performances of a gypsum board against electromagnetic waves documented by Prof. Pauli. In the input mask, the determined radiation densities can be entered depending on the existing frequencies.
