Proof of shielding and forming by absorbers was done in water phantom dosimetrically. Alterations of isodose course were measured in dependence of primary energy, as well as of thickness and density of the absorber materials. Piacryl or aluminium are not suitable for forming of irregular electron fields. They only effect a reduction of therapeutic range. For primary energies of 10.0 less than or equal to MeV less than or equal to E0- less than or equal to 20.0 MeV lead rubber and wood metal are to recommended in a thickness of less than or equal to 10 mm or less than or equal to 8 mm respectively.

68 mean values of airborne shift concentration of total dust were measured at 9 factories of woodworking industries. The values varied from 0.18 to 59.3 mg/m3 for area sampling. But at 63% of the woodworking machines with exhaustion the area sampling shift concentration of total dust reached fewer values than 5 mg/m3. This is a significant decrease of dust concentration in the last ten years.
