How to Choose an Excavator Seat for Comfort, Fit and Durability

The post How to Choose an Excavator Seat for Comfort, Fit and Durability appeared first on UK Construction Blog. A bad excavator seat costs more than comfort. It slows the dig cycle and wears out good operators. The smart buy is a seat that controls vibration, bolts straight into your cab and holds up to daily site work. Vibration Rating Beats Cushion Softness Most buyers squeeze the cushion in the warehouse and call it […]

HSE launches campaign to reduce noise and vibration health impacts

The Health and Safety Executive (HSE) has launched a campaign to reduce hearing loss and hand-arm vibration syndrome (HAVS) on construction sites. The post HSE launches campaign to reduce noise and vibration health impacts appeared first on Construction Management.

Why Warehouse Floor Flatness Should Be Checked Before Introducing Automation

The post Why Warehouse Floor Flatness Should Be Checked Before Introducing Automation appeared first on UK Construction Blog. A warehouse floor is more than a surface beneath racking and machinery. It is a working foundation for people, forklifts, pallet trucks and increasingly, automated systems. When its condition is overlooked, small variations in the concrete can lead to vibration, equipment wear and inefficient operations. Whether you are planning a new installation or reviewing an […]

Piling without the impact

Flooding and erosion, driven by climate change, will require extensive ground engineering. This comes with its own environmental impacts. Piling contractors must find ways to deliver this work, while minimising noise and vibration. Will North reports.

The Efficient Engineer - Understanding Vibration and Resonance 21102021

This video looks at how vibrating systems can be modelled, starting with the "lumped parameter modeling" approach and "single degree of freedom" models. The video then looks at damping, the dissipation of energy that occurs in all real systems, as well as forced vibration, resonance and multiple degree of freedom models.

Arup - Towards a more sophisticated model for Noise Assessnment

Noise can have a significant effect on the health and wellbeing of those who live and work near its source. At present, planning authorities take a ‘community’ approach to sound, whereby acceptable noise levels are established based on their impact on the entire community. Arup aims to enhance this approach by conducting research into how individuals respond to noise. This could help develop more sophisticated noise assessments

TED Ed (Animation) - Why do buildings fall in earthquakes? 26012015

Earthquakes have always been a terrifying phenomenon, and they’ve become more deadly as our cities have grown — with collapsing buildings posing one of the largest risks. But why do buildings collapse in an earthquake? And how can it be prevented? Vicki V. May explains the physics of why it is not the sturdiest buildings, but the smartest, that will remain standing.
