CONT

In the absence of any clearly defined vibration-induced occupational disease ..., it is difficult to select rating procedures ... Despite these difficulties, a guide for the evaluation of human exposure to whole-body vibration has been developed. [It] provides exposure limits for whole-body vibration in the frequency range from 1 to 80 Hz...

CONT

L'état moins avancé des recherches, pour ce qui est des vibrations transmises au corps entier, se reflète dans les seules courbes dont on dispose comme étalon de mesure. Pour les vibrations segmentaires, on en est arrivé à déterminer des valeurs d'exposition pondérées [...] Pour estimer la vibration globale du corps, il faut encore faire l'analyse spectrale par bande de tiers d'octave des fréquences allant de 1Hz à 80Hz.
