The utility model discloses a system of measuring the radiation shielding capacity of construction materials derived from fish scales of the Lagaw (Nemipterus isacanthus, N. isacanthus) fish. Radiation shielding for infrastructure is vital, as preventing the exposure of individuals to high intensities of radiation daily decreases the likelihood of contracting the negative health effects associated with high levels of radiation. Using the devised system, it was determined that the material was able to successfully shield gamma radiation from a 60 keV Am-241 source, having a linear coefficient (µ) of 0.0297 mm-1 and half value layer (HVL) of 23.3 mm.
