Current data regarding construction noise exposure are confusing, and their implications are not well understood. This is due in part to measurement challenges. Using standard dosimetry for measuring noise levels in the construction industry is inadequate due to the multitask, variable environment of the construction worker. This study used a task-based approach to collect noise exposure data on selected construction tasks. Results of this effort include the identification of additional tasks or tools producing high levels of noise that had not been previously identified by trade representatives. Noise levels for a variety of tasks were used in the development of a computer-based training program designed for three construction trade groups: roofers, laborers, and carpenters. Providing construction workers with information on noise levels specific to their trades can improve the effectiveness of hearing conservation education by making the information relevant to workers' day-to-day experience.
目前关于建筑施工噪声暴露的数据令人困惑，其影响也未得到充分理解。部分原因在于测量方面的挑战。由于建筑工人工作任务多样、环境多变，使用标准剂量测定法来测量建筑行业的噪声水平并不充分。本研究采用基于任务的方法，收集选定建筑任务的噪声暴露数据。这项工作的结果包括识别出贸易代表之前未识别出的产生高噪声水平的其他任务或工具。为三个建筑行业群体（屋顶工、体力劳动者和木匠）设计的基于计算机的培训项目开发过程中，使用了各种任务的噪声水平数据。通过提供与建筑工人日常工作相关的特定行业噪声水平信息，可提高听力保护教育的效果。
