This book addresses two extremely important aspects of workplaces, namely, noise and ergonomics. Its thirteen chapters present and discuss theoretical and practical issues involving noise and/or ergonomics, covering a wide and diverse spectrum of working environments that directly affect thousands of workers around the world. The design of the environment is discussed through the relationship between ergonomics and architecture, revealing that the efficient integration between these factors allows us to outline boundaries in the search for solutions to the various specificities of the organization and its different workplaces. The analytical techniques used throughout the book are widely diverse and include in situ acoustic measurements, computer simulations and analysis of noise perception. The various working environments evaluated herein include schools, universities, health care facilities, fitness centers, factories, open plan offices, and urban buses.
