ANTHROPOMETRY(DOCTOR’S CLINIC)

MADE BY :- DEEPANSHU MEHNA

The word ‘anthropometry’ means Measurement of the human body.

It is derived from the Greek words ‘anthropos’ (man) and ‘metron’ (measure).

INTRODUCTION

1. Structural Anthropometric Data

2. Functional Anthropometric Data

TYPES OF ANTHROPOMETRIC DATA

Structural anthropometric data are measurements of the bodily dimensions of subjects in fixed (static) positions.

EXAMPLES:-To specify furniture dimensions.To determine ranges of clothing sizes.

1.STRUCTURAL ANTHROPOMETRIC DATA

Functional anthropometric data are taken under conditions in which the body is engaged in some physical activities.

EXAMPLES:-

Design of Crane CabsDesign of Vehicle Interiors

2.FUNCTIONAL ANTHROPOMETRIC DATA

Some of the applications of anthropometric data are

1.Determine the body dimensions.

2.Determine what principle is to be applied.

3.Defining equipment and facilities.

4.Space requirements.

APPLICATION OF ANTHROPOMETRY IN DESIGN

A door handle must not be lower than the highest standing knuckle, height in a population so that all users can open the door without bending.

1.BODY DIMENSIONSMinimum dimensions

The width of a chair must be no narrower than the hip breadth of a healthy person .

MINIMUM DIMENSIONS

The height of a doorway must be no lower than the stature of a tall man (plus an allowance for clothing and shoes).

MINIMUM DIMENSIONS

A Door lock must not be higher than the maximum vertical reach of a small person.

MAXIMUM DIMENSIONS

Seat heights and depths must not exceed the maximum height and buttock–knee lengths of small users.

MAXIMUM DIMENSIONS

Criteria of judgment of design features of physical equipment and facilities:-

Comfort Work performance Safety & Physical effects

Equipment's are of three kinds:- Spaces into which a person can fit Tools or controls which a person can use Protective clothing and devices

3.EQUIPMENT AND FACILITIES

One of the applications of anthropometric data is the design of work spaces, including the work-space envelopes.

The limits of the work-space envelope for seated personnel are determined by functional arm reach, which is influenced by

presence of any restraints apparel worn angle of back

4.SPACES

Increase accuracyReduce FatigueBetter comfortReduce chance of injuriesTime management

Anthropometry plays a major role in increasing productivity of the organization.

Based on the population we have to design the workspace and equipment's.

According to the level of comfort ability the quality of the product will get raise.
