Posted By Ron Hunter Anyone out there have experiences they are willing to share in the use of 'off the shelf' vibration database systems (such as provided by INVC)as a tool for initial assessment of HAVS associated with tools/activities? I would particulary like to hear from other Local Authorities.

Posted By Renny Thomson TechSP Has anyone any experience in using these databases, or is everyone else carrying out measurements on individual pieces of equipment? We are about to undertake a survey of hand held equipment and it seems that a database of reference figures would cut down the work significantly.
