This book provides an advanced level of study of industrial hygiene engineering situations with emphasis on the control of exposure to occupational health hazards. Primary attention is given to industrial ventilation, noise and vibration control, heat stress, and industrial illumination. Other topics covered include industrial water quality, solid waste control, handling and storage of hazardous materials, personal protective equipment, and costs of industrial hygiene control.

Noise and vibration can reach unacceptable levels in manufacturing plants as well as in offices, auditoriums, and the like. Once an unacceptable level is built in, it is very costly to correct. The noise and vibration control recommendations in Chaps. 4.11 and 4.12 of this hand-... 

Centrally located air-handling nnits external to the compnter space offer benefits on large installations. More options are available with regard to introduction of ventilation air, energy recovery, and control systems. Maintenance is also more convenient where systems are centrally located. There are obvious additional benefits with noise and vibration control. Use of a centrally located system must be carefully evaluated with regard to first cost and to potential savings, as the former will carry a heavy impact.

Crocker, M. J. 2007. Handbook of Noise and Vibration Control. Hoboken, NJ John Wiley Sons. This work addresses noise and vibration on multiple fronts, not just from an engineering perspective. Beyond the fundamentals, chapters cover hnman hearing and speech and the effects of noise, blast, vibration, and shock on people as well as how these effects are generated and can be controlled.
