The health risk and dose calculations from exposure to indoor radon and its decay products are generally based on long-term integral measurements and standard ICRP recommendations. In this context, the results of assessments predicate more about human activities inside the building instead of a quality and an effectiveness of applied measures against the radon. The present paper is focused on a set of different measuring techniques and methods practically used for a classification of buildings regarding to the radon protection requirements. The fundamental quantitative and qualitative procedures of radon transport pathways and radon sources analysis, commonly named as radon diagnostic methods are performed in detail.
