For Civil Engineering and Construction: Heat Index (WBGT) and Physical Work Intensity
Supervised by Sysmet Co., Ltd. Weather Forecasters! A simple explanation of the Heat Index (WBGT) and physical work intensity!
Thank you for always reading. This time, we will deliver an article related to heatstroke. In the previous article, we explained the heat index (WBGT) as an indicator to measure the risk of heatstroke, stating that high temperature alone does not define "heat." WBGT is an index that quantifies the risk of heatstroke based on "temperature," "humidity," and "radiant heat." However, the factors contributing to heatstroke are not limited to the outside air. The work being performed at that time and the clothing being worn also significantly affect the risk of heatstroke. Therefore, to prevent heatstroke, it is necessary to consider two factors: "correction based on clothing combinations" and "WBGT standard values according to physical work intensity." In this article, we will introduce these two aspects. *For more details, please visit our company website.
