Radon is the second leading cause of lung cancer in the country, so it is a critical consideration during design and construction to ensure we are providing a healthy living environment for residents of affordable housing. Fortunately, a home foundation designed and built with radon-resistant features will go a long way to ensuring low radon levels in the building. Enterprise Green Communities and the National Center for Healthy Housing (NCHH) have partnered to offer this educational session on radon resistant construction strategies with a particular focus on multi family structures. The session reviews the importance of radon mitigation and focus on strategies for radon resistant construction in affordable housing through case study examples.
