Effect of concrete block wight and wall height on electromyographic activity and heart rate of masons / D. Anton...[et al.]
Work related musculoskeletal disorders are common among construction workers, such as masons. Few interventions are available to reduce masons' exposure to heavy lifting, a risk factor for MSDs. The purpose of this study was to determine wether one such intervention, the use of light-weight concrete blocks, reduces physiological loads compared to standard-weight blocks
