Basic human body measurements for technological design

1 Scope

This standard provides a description of anthropometric measurements which can be used as a basis for comparison of population groups.

The basic list specified in this standard is intended to serve as a guide for ergonomists who are required to define population groups and apply their knowledge to product design and the geometric design of the places where people work and live.

This standard is not intended to serve as a guide for how to take anthropometric measurements, but it gives information to the ergonomist and designer on the anatomical and anthropometrical bases and principles of measurement which are applied in the solution of design tasks.

This standard should be used in conjunction with national or international standards or regulations to assure harmony in defining population groups. In its various applications, the basic list given in this standard should be supplemented by specific additional measurements.

2 Terms and definitions

For the purposes of this document, the following terms and definitions apply.
