Title
Comparison of Anthropometric Data for the Design of Chairs Between Seven Countries
Abstract
We select anthropometric data related with sitting chair design from ISO/TR 7250-2:2010 to conduct the comparison between seven countries. The data include body height data, breadth data, depth data, and the ratio of the body height and the sitting height. About the body height and sitting height, the United States and the Netherlands men's and women's are higher than the other countries' persons. The Kenyans' bodies heights are in the third place, but their sitting height are at the lowest value among these countries. Sitting depth data are closely related to person's lower limbs' length. Kenya's men have more sitting depth data, followed by European and the USA people, and finally the Asian people. The female have wider sitting hip breadth data in the seven countries than the males. The sitting hip breadths of the female in the Netherlands, Kenya and the United States have about 50-60 mm wider than the female in China, Japan and Korea.
