Due to Particulate Matter (PM10 and PM2.5) from the crushing and grinding machines are of great concern due to their ability to reach respiratory track and damages the lungs. Similarly, sound from heavy machinery like cranes and bulldozers are a constant cause of Noise pollution which leads to stress and hypertension apart from its auditory effects. The results of the research showed that
Particulate matter (PM2.5) concentrations in different construction sites has been found in following trend, Lakshami Chowk > Samanabad > Shalamar > Awan Town > Dera Gujjran > Cavalary Ground > Ali Town. Particulate matter (PM10) concentration in different construction sites is in following trend, Shalamar Bagh > Ali Town > Lakshami Chowk > Awan Town > Samanabad > Dera Gujjran > Cavalary Ground. Noise levels in different construction sites in following shows the following trend, Dera Gujjran > Shalamar Bagh > Samanabad > Lakshami Chowk > Awan Town > Ali Town > Cavalary Ground. The systolic blood pressure level in the community was of different areas is in the following trend, Shalamar Bagh > Lakshami Chowk > Samanabad > Ali Town > Dera Gujjran > Awan Town > Cavalary Ground. The diastolic blood pressure level in the community was of different areas is in the following trend, Shalamar Bagh > Ali Town > Samanabad > Lakshami Chowk > Awan Town > Dera Gujjran > Cavalary Ground. This research concluded the levels of Particulate Matter (PM2.5/10) and noise pollution at the construction site and also relates these levels with the increasing disease rate of hypertension, cardiovascular problems, asthma and other respiratory problems. The results were significance, evaluated using the SPSS 16 package using GraphPad Prism version 5.0 (GraphPad Software

Inc., San Diego, CA) for Windows. One way analysis of variance (ANOVA) with posttest (DunnettTs multiple comparison tests). Statistically significant differences between in control site particulate matter and experimental sites and significance were defined by P < 0.
