| Abstract |
Dust levels were sampled at 24 worksites. Fibre levels were determined during different work situations and not over the long term. Levels varied from <0.05 to >3 fibres/cm3. 50% of all fibres had diameters <1.0µm. The greatest fibre levels were found during insulation of pipes and insulation of existing buildings. The concentration and fibre geometry of coarse fibres was determined. |
