摘要
Anthropometric data concerning British civilian adults is incomplete with respect both to the samples of people investigated and the measurements taken. The purpose of the present paper is to review the currently available sources and to provide (by estimation) a data set which is sufficiently comprehensive and accurate for general application in workspace design. The method of estimation employed required a knowledge of the mean and standard deviation of stature in the target population. Statistical parameters of other body dimensions were obtained by scaling these down according to ratios previously determined for other reference populations. Anthropometric tables are provided for the adult male and female populations of Great Britain (aged 16-64 years). Percentile values are given for fifty bodily dimensions. Refs.
