Abstract
Having as starting point the fundamental requirements outlined in Directive 2002/44/CE in which the minimum health and safety requirements for the workers’ exposure to the risks generated by physical agents (vibrations) are established, the paper presents a concrete evaluation, based on experimental determinations, of the vibrations transmitted to the entire body of a human operator. The evaluation of the level of exposure to vibrations is based on the computation of the daily exposure, expressed over a period of eight hours. The weighted mean square acceleration will be determined function of the frequency weighting curves Wc, Wd and Wk , using a MATLAB program developed by the author. Based on the indications from SR ISO 2361-1 the evaluation of the vibrations for health, comfort, and perception are presented as experimental results. In this context, the necessity of compliance with the minimum health and safety requirements imposed by the current legislation are highlighted.
