The annual statistics on fall fatality consistently show the dangers of working at height. The "Occupational Safety and Health Act" specifies legal restrictions on work at height using a scaffold. However, there are different classes of work at height, and some rely only on ropes. This study proposes education, training, and institutionalization of the "rope access work system." In brief, it was concluded that accurate instruction on the knot method and the setting of some standards were important. For this, the use of an integrated work chair harness equipment was suggested.

PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to examine differences in erect spinae activities at different height of table during ultrasound therapy in order to propose a optimum work environment. METHODS: Twenty five healthy adult males and females volunteered to participate in this study. EMG signals of both erector spinae(T10, T12, L2, L4) were recorded throught the surface electromyography system at different height of table(45cm, 56.2cm, 67.5cm) during ultrasound therapy work. RESULTS: The higher table heights was, the lower %RVC of the T10, T12, L2, L4 erect spinae at both sides. The left and right T10, T12 and the left L4 showed significant differences. The lower the spinal level was, the higher %RVC of both erect spinae at 45cm, 56.2cm, 67.5cm. The left erect spinae at 56.2cm, right erect spinae at 45cm, 67.5cm showed significant differences. CONCLUSION: The muscle activities of both erect spinae decreased at higher table height and increased lower spinal level. We identified lower table height are risk factor of spine work related musculoskeletal disorders.

Push-pull strength has been found to be associated with various work factors such as height, distance, repetition, duration, posture and individual factors. Therefore, this study was performed to investigate the effect of various work factors on push-pull strength and muscle recruitment pattern. Work factors were consisted of grip height(elbow, shoulder), grip distance(100%, 50%, and 25% of maximum grip distance) and shoulder angle(neutral($90^{\cire}$), and abduction($45^{\cire}$, $0^{\cire}$)) during sitting work. The results showed that the normalized strength and EMG value were higher at the elbow height than the shoulder height, and increased with grip distance and shoulder adduction. The results of ANOVA showed that there was significant difference on muscle recruitment patterns among the task conditions. Therefore, it is necessary to consider work factors as well as strength to prevent workers from work-related injuries.

Proportion of falling from height accident at construction work accounts for more than 40%, and the number of injuries is getting increased. So without considering falling from height, we can say that it's hard to achieve our goal(accident prevention). Another critical point that we have to think about theses days is the fact that construction workers are getting older. To be specific, the number of workers who are above 50 years old accounts for 65.6% among the fatalities(2007~2011, KOSHA inspection). Accordingly, to effectively prevent construction accedents, especially falls from height, we need to focus on motion analysis of older construction workers and then make suitable measures for growing accident rates at construction work.

로프엑세스에 의한 고소작업은 해양플랜트를 포함한 많은 산업현장에서 사용되고 있고 작업 위험성 때문에 작업자에게 IRATA 자격증을 요구하는 것이 세계적인 추세이다. 또한 우리나라 산업재해의 사망사고 원인 1위가 추락사고임에도 불구하고 고소작업자에 대한 교육훈련은 거의 전무한 실정이다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 IRATA의 자격증 종류, 교육방법 및 회원자격 등에 대하여 소개하고 이를 우리나라에 도입하는 방안을 제시하고자 한다.

This investigation aims at calculating the geoid height, distance between the ellipsoidal height and the orthometric height by GPS/Levelling data for nationwide 58 Bench Marks, and calculating the effect of geoid height to engineering public works. The accuracy of the results from baseline analyses and adjustment of a network. using GPS surveying data by nationwide 58 BM show 4mm for horizontal direction and 7cm for vertical direction. The 58 geoid height was calculated by GPS/Levelling. For a construction work field GPS/Levelling for distributed 4 BM in test area can calculate the orthometric height in 20 ppm relativity accuracy with 95% reliability. Besides the calculated geoid height in the investigation was 0.367m higher than EGM96 model. The test results of a engineering work site, the result by EGM96 model was 1.8cm in 10km and it was also 3.6cm in interpolation method. The results show that it is equivalent to levelling of $20mm\sqrt{S}$.

The purpose of this study was to devise guidelines for the kitchen workspace of the aged by examining current usage. To achieve this objective, surveys were conducted and measurement were taken between June 15 and lune 30, 2005. The data were gathered from 50 women over 65- years-old who live in the downtown and suburbs of Seoul, Korea. The collected data were processed using SPSS 12.0 for Microsoft Windows and resulted in the following conclusions: The kitchen for the aged needs to be laid out in ㄱ-shape and the refrigerator needs to be positioned prominently. The height of the work counter is relative to the user's height (${\times}0.49{\sim}056$). and the length varies depending on the available space of the house and the type of work counter needed: however it was found that it should be at least 270cm Concerning the depth of the work counter, the standard sizes (60cm) currently on the market did not cause any inconvenience. It was found that the sink must be designed to allow for some space at the bottom so as to ensure comfortable sedentary work. Also, an electrical oven was preferred over a gas-fuelled one. Finally, the height of the upper cabinet should be relative to the user's height at ${\times}0.85{\sim}1.0$ from the floor to the bottom of the cabinet.

An experimental study of the characteristics and the behavior of flames, and the aerodynamic flow pattern was carried out in the present work on a down draft kiln for gas firing. The aim of this work is to establish a behavior of flames and to know the extent to which the flow pattern is affected by the height of baffle plate. The measurements of temperature, concentrations of fuelgas, and kiln pressure were conducted at different temperature in kiln, and at different height of baffle plate. From the obtained results, it was found that the characteristics of thestagnation zone are greatly affected when changing over the height of baffle plate, and the best condition of that was 115m/m.

While sludge settles down in a column, sludge settling characteristic is influenced by effect parameters, interparticle force, wall effect etc. As the height of a column changes, the settling velocity of sludge-water interface changes, too. At lower sludge concentration, particular effect was not observed by the difference of column height, however it was observed that settleability of sludge was greatly influenced by column height when sludge settling was poor or sludge concentration was high. It is therefore required to consider the effect of column height when the power model for sludge interface settling is established. In the tests, there was hardly any $SVI_{ts}$(SVI after "t" minutes) difference in each column after 10min at $1.5kg/m^3$ of sludge concentration. When sludge concentration was at $2.5kg/m^3$, $SVI_{ts}$ tended to be constant after 20min. At $3.5kg/m^3$, $SVI_{ts}$ increased to 30minuets. The purpose of this work is to establish the correction factor that is able to compensate the errors derived from each different height of column.

In our previous work using a motion analyzer and 3-dimensional sonic digitizer, the arm shapes for 23 women in their early twenties were classified into three characteristic types. In order to design sleeves, suitable for arm movements for the three characteristic arm shapes, a relationship between arm length variation and shoulder/elbow angles has been investigated for four cases of arm movements (flexion, extension, adduction and abduction). Each arm movement can be characterized by the changes in shoulder angle and the changes in elbow angle at the maximal shoulder angle. In all the four cases of arm movements, the changes of shoulder length and cap height are largest at the maximal shoulder angle. These changes were little affected by changes in elbow angle. The changes in the lower arm length and the difference between cap height and upper arm length are the largest at the maximal elbow angle of the maximal shoulder angle. There is a linear relationship between cap height and shoulder angle during arm movements; thus, in designing sleeves the cap height can be determined from the regression of cap height vs. shoulder angle.
