Summary, etc. The Control of Vibration at Work Regulations 2005 place a duty upon employers to limit the exposure of employees to Hand-Arm Vibration (HAV). This article reports on a field study which recorded vibration measurements from a range of hand-held construction tools, so that their vibration data could be explored. Significant variance in the data was found, attributable to the method of vibration measurement, tool manufacturing tolerances, the sharpness of the tools' cutting edges, and differing operator techniques. The results of the measurements and analysis provide guidance to construction managers in performing HAV risk assessments, including preference for real data over those obtained from controlled conditions, and the need to recognize potential data variance when calculating operators' maximum exposure times.
