7、DARDS ON ACOUSTICS The Acoustical Society of America (ASA) provides the Secretariat for Accredited Standards Committees S1 on Acoustics, S2 on Mechanical Vibration and Shock, S3 on Bioacoustics, and S12 on Noise. These committees have wide representation from the technical community (manufacturers,

8、consumers, trade associations, organizations with a general interest, and government representatives). The standards are published by the Acoustical Society of America as American National Standards after approval by their respective Standards Committees and the American National Standards Institute

9、. These standards are developed and published as a public service to provide standards useful to the public, industry, and consumers, and to Federal, State, and local governments. Each of the accredited Standards Committees operating in accordance with procedures approved by American National Standa

10、rds Institute (ANSI) is responsible for developing, voting upon, and maintaining or revising its own Standards. The ASA Standards Secretariat administers Committee organization and activity and provides liaison between the Accredited Standards Committees and ANSI. After the Standards have been produ

11、ced and adopted by the Accredited Standards Committees and approved as American National Standards by ANSI, the ASA Standards Secretariat arranges for their publication and distribution. An American National Standard implies a consensus of those substantially concerned with its scope and provisions.

12、 Consensus is established when, in the judgment of the ANSI Board of Standards Review, substantial agreement has been reached by directly and materially affected interests. Substantial agreement means much more than a simple majority, but not necessarily unanimity. Consensus requires that all views

13、and objections be considered and that a concerted effort be made towards their resolution. The use of an American National Standard is completely voluntary. Their existence does not in any respect preclude anyone, whether he or she has approved the Standards or not, from manufacturing, marketing, pu

14、rchasing, or using products, processes, or procedures not conforming to the Standards. NOTICE: This American National Standard may be revised or withdrawn at any time. The procedures of the American National Standards Institute require that action be taken periodically to reaffirm, revise, or withdr

This standard comprises a part of a group o

25、f definitions, standards, and specifications for use in mechanical vibration and shock. It was developed and approved by Accredited Standards Committee S2, Mechanical Vibration and Shock, under its approved operating procedures. Those procedures have been accredited by the American National Standard

26、s Institute (ANSI). The Scope of Accredited Standards Committee S2 is as follows: Standards, specifications, methods of measurement and test, and terminology in the field of mechanical vibration and shock and condition monitoring and diagnostics of machines, including the effects of exposure to mech

27、anical vibration and shock on humans, including those aspects which pertain to biological safety, tolerance, and comfort. This standard is a revision of ANSI S3.34-1986 (R 1997), which has been technically revised. The revisions incorporated into this standard make the measurement and data analysis

28、procedures of the standard compatible with the corresponding procedures specified in ISO 5349 Part 1 and ISO 5349 Part 2. Vibration and health risks assessment procedures, methods for mitigating the potential for workers developing symptoms related to hand-arm vibration syndrome (HAVS), and training

29、 and medical surveillance guidelines have been added to this standard. This standard is not comparable to any existing ISO Standard.

32、 arms of the user. Such situations occur when a person uses pneumatically, hydraulically, and electrically powered percussive tools (i.e., chipping hammers, needle scalars, impact wrenches, etc.); pneumatically, hydraulically, and electrically powered grinders and sanders; gasoline powered tools (i.

33、e., chain saws, circular saws, edge trimmers, etc.); and pedestal grinders. These vibrations are usually transmitted through the hand to the arm and shoulder. Depending on individual work practices and work situations, this vibration can be transmitted to one hand only or to both hands simultaneousl

34、y. Continued habitual use of some types of hand-held vibrating devices, tools, and work pieces has been found under certain circumstances to be associated with patterns of diseases affecting the hand and arm. The patterns of various symptoms observed have been called vibration disease, vibration syn

35、drome, vibration white finger (VWF), or Raynauds phenomenon of occupational origin. These disorders have been grouped into a single syndrome referred to as the hand-arm vibration syndrome (HAVS). Hand-arm vibration may also cause entrapment syndromes, such as carpal tunnel syndrome, as well as other

36、 upper extremity cumulative trauma disorders (CTDs). For the purpose of this standard, hand-transmitted vibration is defined as the mechanical vibration that, when transmitted to the human hand-arm system, may entail risks to worker health and safety, in particular vascular, bone or joint, neurologi

37、cal, and muscular. The International Organization for Standardization (ISO) has developed two international standards: (1) ISO 5349 Part 1 and (2) ISO 5349 Part 2. The appendices in ISO 5349 Part 1 give specific guidance on the health effects related to hand-transmitted vibration, the relationship b

38、etween vibration exposure and effects on health, factors likely to influence the effects of human exposure to hand-transmitted vibration in working conditions, and preventative measures to be adopted to reduce the potential for developing symptoms related to HAVS. ISO 5349 Part 2 gives specific guid

39、elines on how to make vibration measurements on hand-held vibrating and percussive tools. The user of this standard is, therefore, directed to these ISO standards for specific guidance in these areas. The Parliament of the European Union has issued the European Union Human Vibration Directive-2002/4

40、4/EC. This directive specifies vibration daily exposure action values (DEAV) of 2.5 m/s2and daily exposure limit values (DELV) of 5.0 m/s2that, when achieved, will reduce the potential for users of hand-held vibrating and percussive devices, tools, and work pieces to develop symptoms related to HAVS

41、. The DEAV and DELV specified in the EU human vibration directive have generally been accepted by medical experts, scientists, and engineers in governmental agencies, research institutions, and industry in the USA and other countries. The guidance provided in this standard and its annexes are intend

42、ed to assist in reducing the potential for the occurrences of HAVS and other related hand-arm vibration disorders among persons who work with hand-held vibrating and percussive devices, tools and work pieces. Many factors affect the potential for an individual to develop symptoms related to HAVS. Be

43、cause the subjective symptoms and objective clinical findings associated with HAVS are similar to the pathology arising from other causes, it is imperative that a proper differential diagnosis be performed on workers who display pathology related to HAVS by a physician with qualifications and experi

44、ence in differential diagnosis of hand-arm syndromes and diseases.

45、 This standard specifies the recommended method for the measurement, data analysis and evaluation, vibration and health risk assessments, and reporting of hand-transmitted vibration exposure. The methods specified in this standard are to be used to characterize and evaluate vibration impinging on th

46、e hands of humans and to give guidance on assessing the potential for this vibration to result in pathology related to hand-arm vibration exposure among the users of hand-held percussive or vibrating devices, tools, and work pieces. Factors, such as grip and push forces applied to tool handles, orie

47、ntation of the hands and tool relative to a specific work piece, and intermittency of vibration exposure that can affect ones exposure to hand-transmitted vibration are not addressed in this standard. 1.2 Prolonged excessive exposure to hand-transmitted vibration may result in adverse health effect,

48、 such as hand-arm vibration syndrome (HAVS) and other conditions of the upper extremities, such as carpal tunnel syndrome. For the purpose of this standard, hand-arm vibration syndrome is defined as the complex of peripheral vascular, neurological, and musculoskeletal disorders of the hand and arm t

49、hat are associated with industrial exposure to hand-transmitted vibration. 1.3 This standard is intended as a guide for the measurement, data analysis and evaluation, vibration and health risk assessments, and reporting of human exposure to vibration transmitted to the hands, with a view toward reducing the potential for the occurrence of pathology related to hand-arm vibration exposure among the users of hand-held percussive or vibrating devices, tools, and work pieces. 1.4 The methods of measurement, data analysis, evaluation, a
