description | The aim of this study was the biomechanical assessment of carpentry woodworkers, located in
Brasília, DF. It was filmed the profile of each worker during the performance of his activities in the
carpentry and the forces involved in the work were assessed. The image of each woodworker was congealed
to accomplish the measurement of articulation angles. The data were submitted to the software of posture
analysis Winowas (OWAS Method) and to the biomechanic model of posture prognosis and static forces,
developed by Michigan University. The OWAS method showed that, for all machines and carpentries
assessed, the worst posture occurred when the worker lifted and placed the pieces of wood on the floor and
during the feeding in the smoother. The tridimensional biomechanic model registered the worst posture in
different phases of the work cycle. In the first one, there were problems in all articulations, except the hips,
when placing the pieces on the floor from the smoother. In the second one, there were problems in all
articulations, except the elbows and the L5-S1 column disc, by feeding the surface planer. The third one, the
ankles were the most injured when feeding the smoother, the surface planer, the circular saw and the band
saw. According to the results, the woodworkers should try to eliminate the constant work standing upright,
use auxiliary machinery to handle pieces of wood, reduce the load during feeding the machines and improve
postures. |
