Davis, Joseph R., Mirka, Gary A. and Pearson, Richard G. (1995): Effects of Industrial Noise on Muscle Activation and Spinal Loading. In: Proceedings of the Human Factors and Ergonomics Society 39th Annual Meeting 1995. p. 957.

Effects of environmental noise during performance of manual material handling tasks are important because industrial noise can cause effects such as increasing muscle tension along with associated rises in spinal loading. The purpose of this research was to investigate spinal loading effects of an OSHA permissible noise level (103 dBA for 10 seconds) commonly encountered in industry. Two examples of common industrial noises are that dropping a wooden pallet can cause 103 dBA and a fork-lift backup alarm can be 112 dBA. Six
