Alongside air temperature, air humidity and heat radiation, air velocity is a determining factor for the climate in workrooms. It may not exceed the below-listed values at place-bound workstations.
- 0.10 m/sec for work requiring little physical effort (i.e. clerical work)
- 0.20 m/sec for work requiring moderate physical effort (i.e. working on a turning lathe)
- 0.35 m/sec for work requiring major physical effort (i.e. digging)
