Evaluation of wet bulb globe temperature index for estimation of heat strain in hot/humid conditions in the Persian Gulf
BACKGROUND: Heat exposure among construction workers in the Persian Gulf region is a serious hazard for health. The aim of this study was to evaluate the performance of wet bulb globe temperature (WBGT) Index for estimation of heat strain in hot/humid conditions by the use of Physiological Strain In...
