Neutron Probe of Building-Wall Composition

Abstract

Walls of historic buildings charted by neutron radiography. Neutron source and Gamma-Ray Detector alined with each other yield map of composition of wall. Points spaced for minimal overlap based on mean free path of gamma rays emitted from wall materials. Map indicates nature and extent of changes in building materials so proper treatment is applied.
