Purpose. The objective of this thesis was to examine work in mines. Specifically, part #1 performed in-situ time/motion analyses of common mining jobs and part #2 analyzed in-situ energy expenditures while working in a mine. Methodology. Part #1- task and sub-task duration and subjective work intensity were investigated for thirty eight subjects from six different mining jobs. These jobs were then organized into 4 groups for statistical analysis based on precedence: Group 1 (Bolting & Screening (attaching steel mesh to walls and ceiling), Group 2 (Conventional Mining (using a hand-held drilling carriage to drills holes in rock walls and ceiling)), Group 3 (Support Services (mechanic, welder, pipe layer)), Group 4 (Production Drill (using ...
