SRPS EN ISO 7250:2005

Basic human body measurements for technological design (ISO 7250:1996)

Scope

This International 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 International Standard is intended to serve as a guide for ergonomists who are required to define population groups and apply their knowledge to the geometric design of the places where people work and live. This list 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 International Standard may be used in conjuction with national or international regulations or agreements to assure harmony in defining population groups. In its various applications, it is anticipated that the basic list will be supplemented by specific additional measurements.
