Sub-module 6A, page 8

This page and the next two have the Table of Contents of the Exposure Factors Handbook and hyperlinks to the book chapters. Although this book is labeled a "Draft," it is where I would go to determine any of the information. For now, just cruise through the TOC items on the next few pages and get an idea what is available from the handbook.
