5. INTRODUCTION

The Fascination Of Philosophers, Artists, Theoreticians And Architects With Human Body Sizes Dates Back Many
Centuries. During The Middle Ages, Dionysius, Monk Of Phourna Of Agrapha, Wrote Of Man’s Body Sizes As “Nine
Heads Tall”.
This Was The People’s Historic Involvement With Body Size, However, The Science Dealing Specifically With The
Measurement Of Human Body To Determine The Differences In Individuals, Groups, Etc., Is Termed As
Anthropometrics.
During The Course Of Time, A Significant Amount Of Anthropometric Data Has Been Amassed. Unfortunately For
Designer, However, The Thrust Of Much Of The Efforts In This Area Was For Taxonomic Purposes, Physiological Studies,
Etc. And Not Primarily For The Ergonomic Implications Of Body Sizes. It Was Not Until The 1940s That The Need For
Anthropometric Data, Generated In A Variety Of Industrial Fields, But Primarily In The Aircraft Industry.
It Is Essential, Due To The Many Variables Involved, That The Data Selected Be Appropriate To The User Of The Space
Or Furniture To Be Designed. It Becomes Necessary For The Intended User Population To Be Properly Defined In Terms
Of Such Factors Like Age, Sex, Occupation And Ethnicity.

6. Anthropometrics of Seating

8. ANTHROPOMETRICS OF SEATING

The Design Of Seating Can Be Traced At Least To Antiquity. The Stool, For Example, Had Already Been Developed Into
Valued Article Of Furniture By The Egyptians As Far Back As 2050 B.C. And Chair As Far Back As 1600 B.C. Despite Its
Ubiquity And Long History, However Seating Is The Most Poorly Designed Elements Of Interior Space. One Of The
Major Difficulties In The Design Of Seating Is That Sitting Is, Quite Frequently, Viewed As A Static Activity While In
Actually , It Is A Rather Dynamic One.
Paradoxically, A Chair That Is Anthropometrically Correct May Not Necessarily Be Comfortable As Well. If The Design,
However, Is Simply Not Responsive At All To Human Dimensions And Body Size, There Is No Question That The Seating
Will, In Fact, Be Uncomfortable.
Another Difficulty Is That Very Little Data Are Available With Respect To The Bio Mechanism Of Chair Design And
Practically No Research Has Been Published With Respect To “Comfort”
It Should Be Noted That The Dimensions Taken Are Taken From The Compressed Seat Padding Or Cushion Surface. In
The Design Of Seating, The Relative Resiliency And Compressive Qualities Of Cushion Are Therefore Extremely
Important.
And The Drawings On The Following Pages Examines All These Conditions And Should Be Helpful Only A Few Of The
Many Designs Situation That Require Knowledge Of Human Dimensions.

This diagram shows the more
critical measurements to be
considered in the design of the
typical work or secretarial chair.
To function properly its design
must be responsive to human
dimension. Anthropometrically,
the two most common and
important measurements are
buttock-popliteal length popliteal
height. Provisions for support of
the lumbar region by proper
location of a backrest is essential
for a successful design.

The easy chair, is a difficult chair
type to design or establish
guidelines for, since it is
primarily indented for
relaxation and comfort qualities
which are highly personal.
Design should allow the user to
change posture. The drawing in

The drawings shows the basic
dimensions for a design of
banquette seating. The lack of
arm rest makes it difficult to
define seat boundaries. The user
therefore tends to establish his
own territory by assuming the
desired sitting posture and
placing personal articles next to
him.
Because of many hidden
psychological factors involved,
the actual efficiency of this
seating type in terms of capacity
is questionable. The diagram
indicates two possible seating
situations , each dictated by the
anthropometrics involved.

The Variety Of Human Activities That Occur Within Residential Spaces, Whether They Be Studio Apartments, Two And
Three BHK Or Suburban Houses, Is Formidable. It Is Within This Single Environment That People Sleep, Dine, Read,
Mediate, Entertain, Do Housework, Read Cook, Bathe, Etc. It Is Also Between These Spaces That People Spend At Least
Half Of Their Walking Hours And Are Subjected To Most Of The Physical Injuries They Are Likely To Sustain During The
Course Of Their Lifetime.
The Various Activities And Elements Of Furniture Usually Associated With Living Spaces Result In Many Levels Of
Interface Between The Human Body And The Physical Components Of The Space. The Most Obvious Is Between The User
And The Chair Or Sofa. In This Regard Seat Height Must Take Into Consideration Popliteal Height, While Seat Depth Must
Be Responsive To Buttock-popliteal Length.
The Possibilities Are Almost Endless And The Drawings On The Following Pages Examines All These Conditions And
Should Be Helpful Only A Few Of The Many Designs Situation That Require Knowledge Of Human Dimensions.

footrest. The buttock-leg length of
the larger person is the most

also a function of seat height. The

In Examining The Relationship Between Human Dimension And Dining Spaces, The Areas Of Most Concern To The
Designers Are The Clearance Around The Table And The Number Of People A Table Of A Particular Size Can
Accommodate. The Clearances Between The Edge Of The Table And The Wall Or And Other Physical Obstruction Must
At The Very Least Accommodate Two Elements (1) The Space Occupied By The Chair (2) The Maximum Body Breadth Of
A Person Of Larger Body Size As He Circulates Between The Chair And The Wall.
It Should Also Be Noted That The Size Of The Place Setting Will Determine How Much Table Area Will Be Available For
Centrally Located Shared Elements, Such As Beverages Or Serving Dishes.
Too Often In Calculating The Number Of People To Be Accommodated Around The Table, The Designer Relies Exclusively
On Plastic Furniture Templates Or On The Application Of A 24” Or 61 Cm, Centre To The Centre Chair Spacing, Instead
Of Considering The Maximum Body Breadth Of A Person Of Larger Body Size.
The Drawing On The Following Pages Examines All These Conditions And Should Be Helpful In Establishing An Approach
For Individual Design Analysis.

increment unit to the
rectangular table for formal
dining for six. The table size
shown is 54 by 96 inch. The size
will provide each person with an
individual place – setting zone of
18 by 30 inch, and will allow a
shared access zone at the center
of the table with a depth of 18
inch. The 30 inch width provided
for each person allows for elbow

The drawing shows a minimal,
square general purpose table for
informal dining. Although the
width and depth of the place –
setting zones are the same as in
the larger rectangular tables,
their angular configuration
reduces the area significantly as
well as the area of the shared
access zone. To allow clearances
for the chair and head-on
circulation behind the chair, a
minimum distance of 48 inch,
must be maintained between
the edge of the table and the
wall or nearest physical
obstruction. A clearance of 36 to
42 inch can be provided to allow
restricted circulation. This will
require a person to sidestep or
the seated person to adjust the
chair to allow passage.

The diagram illustrates a 36-in, or

seating four people and shows the
necessary clearances around the
perimeter. Four people cannot
function comfortably around such a
small table for anything but the
lightest snacks. The individual place-
setting zones are extremely
restricted and the shared access
zone at the center is too small to
accommodate in the way of serving
dishes platters.

51. COOKING SPACES

53. The height of a kitchen work counter , the proper clearances between cabinets or appliances for circulation , the
accessibility to overhead or undercover storage , and proper visibility are among the primary consideration in the
design of cooking spaces . All must be responsive to human dimension and body size if the if the quality of interface
between the user of larger body size must be taken into account as well as the projection of the appliances .
Standard kitchen heights manufactured are all about 36 inch or 91.4 cm . But such a height does not necessarily
accommodate the body dimension of all user for all tasks. The drawing on the following pages examine the question
of human dimension in terms of the anthropometric measurements .

79. BATHROOM SPACES

81. INTRODUCTION
One of the most dramatic example of a design situation where little consideration is given to the relationship
of human dimension and body size to the designed environment can be found in practically every bathroom ,
private and public . Few designers , builders and users give any thought to the height above the floor of a
lavatory . Hours , if not days , may be spent in the selection of the appropriate color , fixtures ,model or trim .
The fact is that it is not natural for the human body to assume a stooped postures while washing the hands
and face . This postures necessitated , however because most basin heights are only about 30 inch or 76.2 cm
above the floor . It is interesting to note that 3 inch is also the average height of a desk , or dining table , yet if
a person were forced to write or eat from a standing position , each of the surfaces would have to be raised at
least 6 to 12 inch or 15.2 to 30.5 cm .

Drawing illustrates some basic
anthropometric considerations
related to the lavatory area. The
most obvious problem concerns the
height of the lavatory above the
floor. Greater than the height at
which lavatories are normally
installed, presumably to
accommodate the majority of the
population. The drawing indicates
the ranges for adult males, females,
and children of lavatory heights
suitable to accommodate a greater
portion of the respective
populations.

The size of a shower can vary
greatly depending on the level of
comfort desired. Safety is also an
extremely important
consideration. Unless a fairly
reliable mixing value capable of
presetting a fixed and desirable
water temperature is provided,
care should be taken to locate
controls within reach but out of
direct line of the water path in
order to avoid scalding or freezing
while operating the controls.

recycling and soaking for extended
periods, a large-size tub may not
necessarily be the wisest selection.
The length of the tub at the
bottom surface should
approximate the buttock-heel
length of the smaller user. This will
allow the feet to bear against the
end of the tub and act as a brace
to prevent the body from sliding
too far under the water.

105. CLOTHES CLOSET : The capacity of a
clothes closet depends upon the
accessible length of rod . Three types
of closet are common .

1.Reach-in Closet : The minimum
front to back depth of space for
hanging clothes is 24 inches . The
accessible rod length is equal to
the width of the door opening
plus 6 inch on each side .

2.Edge-in Closet : By providing an
edge of at least 18 inch , the
accessible rod length can be much
longer than the door width . This
requires less wall space than a full
front opening .

3.Walk-in Closet : This type
provides rods on one or both sides
of an access path at least 20 inch
wide . A wider access space within
the closet may be used as a
dressing area .
