Construction Vibration Monitoring Construction vibration monitoring involves measuring and analyzing vibrations generated by construction activities, with a focus on parameters like amplitude, frequency, duration, direction, and distribution of vibrational energy. It aims to prevent vibrations from exceeding safe limits, protecting structures and the environment. What is construction vibration monitoring? Construction vibration monitoring is the process […]
Whole-Body Vibrations Whole-body vibrations are mechanical vibrations that enter the human body in the frequency range of 0.1 to 80 Hz. A typical source of whole-body vibrations is vehicles, where vibrations are transferred to the human body via seats or floors. The whole-body vibration is a possible health hazard, especially after prolonged exposure. What is […]
Sound Energy: Definition, Characteristics, and Measurement Techniques Sound energy is a form of mechanical energy propagated through mediums such as air, water, or solids, emanating from the vibrations of an object and characterized by attributes like frequency, amplitude, and duration. It manifests in various forms, including audible sound within the frequency range perceivable by the […]
Occupational Noise Exposure Occupational noise exposure is commonly defined as the sound levels employees encounter during their regular work duties. Prolonged or repeated exposure can lead to hearing difficulties, reduced job performance, and broader safety concerns in various industries. Noise stands among the more significant workplace safety and health hazards because it directly affects communication, awareness […]
