Application of the Predicted Heat Strain Model in development of localized, threshold-based heat stress management guidelines for the construction industry

Existing heat stress risk management guidelines recommended by international standards are not practical for the construction industry which needs site supervision staff to make instant managerial decisions to mitigate heat risks. The ability of the predicted heat strain (PHS) model [ISO 7933 (2004)...
