description The article deals with the issues of normative and methodological support of radiation survey of buildings and structures to be demolished. It is noted that with the intensive growth of construction of dwellings and public buildings in large cities, former industrial territories with a significant number of facilities to be demolished are being included into the development zone. The radiation monitoring and sorting of industrial waste generated after the demolition of buildings is not feasible in practice. The expediency of radiation survey of buildings and structures to be demolished at the stage preceding their dismantling, as well as the need to develop and approve at the federal level the methodology of its implementation is substantiated. Recommendations for the assessment of radiation safety indicators of buildings and structures to be demolished are given. It is shown that if the value of ambient equivalent gamma dose rate in the buildings and structures to be demolished does not exceed 0.6 μSv/h, industrial waste generated after demolition of buildings and structures and containing only natural radionuclides are not a subject to any restrictions related to the radiation factor, since the value of effective activity concentration of natural radionuclides is guaranteed not to exceed 1500 Bq/kg and therefore the waste is classified as Category I in accordance with the Basic sanitary rules for the provision of radiation safety (OSPORB 99/2010).
