Comprehensive manual handling limits for lowering, pushing, pulling and carrying activities / Christin Shoaf... [et al.]
The objective of this study was to develop a set of mathematical models for manual lowering, pushing, pulling and carrying activities that would result in establishing load capacity limits to protect the lower back against occupational low-back disorders. In order to establish safe guidelines, a three-stage process was used: first, psychophysical data; second, biomechanical analysis; third, physiological criteria
