10.2.1 Recommended %MVC for momentary exertions

When an exertion does not repeat, is sporadic, and is sustained only momentarily, Ergoniza Intelligent applies no additional reduction associated with duration or repetitiveness. The Base Maximum Moment therefore equals the individualized maximum isometric capacity for the joint and movement being analyzed. This capacity is obtained by considering the worker's posture, sex, age, laterality, and selected body build, as explained in Section 10.1.1.1.

Accordingly, a recommended %MVC of 100% is used for this type of exertion. This criterion should not be interpreted as a general recommendation to work continuously near maximum capacity, but as a reference applicable to momentary, sporadic actions of very short duration.
