Construction machinery ride comfort plays an important role in protecting the health and productivity of the drivers. The goal of this paper is to provide an overview of research on ride comfort characteristics of cab’s isolation systems of construction machines. From traditional isolation systems to modern systems, their ride comfort effects are analyzed based on the literatures. Types of isolation system applied to construction machinery cab include traditional rubber isolation system (TRIs), Hydraulic isolation system (HIs), Hydro pneumatic isolation  system (HPIs), Semi-active hydrauric isolation system (SHIs) and Semi-active hydraulic-pneumatic isolation system (SHPIs) are discussed in this paper. The study results have shown the advantages and disadvantages of cab’s isolation systems being applied on construction machines. In addition, the study results could provide ideas for researchers in the field of construction machinery ride comfort.
