*Soil type: W = wet soil (15.6-18.1% moisture); D = dry soil (2.6-3.6% moisture). Given range is of mean values of three measurements taken at each trial.

**Clothing: SS/SP = short-sleeve shirt/short pants; LS/LP = long-sleeve shirt/long pants.

*Soil type: W = wet soil (9.0-11.9% moisture); D = dry soil (5.2-7.0% moisture). Given range is of mean values of three measurements taken at each trial.

**Time: Time spent performing pipe-laying activity in soil bed.

Note: All adult pipe-layers wore short-sleeve shirts and short pants.
