Industrial - Occupational Hygiene Calculations: A Professional Reference

Occupational-Industrial Hygiene is the aggregate of many disciplines. Many of the disciplines have strong mathematical underpinnings, e.g., ventilation, noise and radiation. In addition, certification as a CIH, ROH, or IHIT requires extensive use and application of mathematical formulas. This book is the result of the combined efforts of well-recognized professionals who were faculty for the course "Certified Industrial Hygiene Professional Review" at the Harvard School of Public Health. The result is a direct straight forward coverage of the equations covering ventilation, chemistry, noise, radiation, heat stress, statistics, lasers, aerosols etc. as they are applied to the practice and study of occupational-industrial hygiene. Each equation is completely covered on one page. The equation is displayed, a useful and clear reference, all units and symbols are defined. Below the graphic of teh equation is a discussion of its theory and application of the equation and a example application of the equation completely worked out.

James H. Stewart, PhD, CIH is the editor and an author of the book. He is currently and Instructor and Research Associate in Industrial Hygiene at the Harvard School of Public Health. He assembled a distinguished team of professionals all CIHs, CHP or a Doctorate degree along with the certification. Each of the authors are experienced professionals and teachers.
