Chapter 3.3 The Body and Performance Human Performance Engineering Robert W. Bailey, Ph.D. Third Edition

2 Reasons to Consider Body Dimensions: 1. Certain body dimensions seem to be related to optimal performance in some activities. 2. User must fit into space provided, be able to make required reaches or movements.

Limits: Pygmy people of central Africa- Avg. 4’ 7” Nilotes of the Sudan – Avg. 5’8 ½” Tallest – Robert Wadlow- 8’11” Shortest – Pauline Musters – 1’11” 2’-9’ =Extreme Outer Limits

Who should we design for? What % of the people?

Anthropometry- Studies of body dimensions Designing for Average Person is a mistake Design for 95% of potential users

2 Kinds of Measurement: Static Functional

Table 5.2 Useful Body Dimensions for Reach (Accommodating 95% of Users) Dimension 5 th Percentile Example of use Vertical reach (A-1) 75in. Placement of highest book 190cm shelf Eye Height (A-3) 57.5in. Allowing most workers to look 146cm over the side of their cubicles Thumb tip reach (B-1) 28.0in. Maximum distance for placing 71cm CRT controls

Three Purposes of Measurement 1.To help in making decisions concerning reach 2.To help in making decisions concerning clearance 3. Where ranges of dimensions are important

Range of Movement Movable joints: Hinged joints- fingers Pivot joints-elbow Ball and socket joints –shoulder and hip

Healthy people – 20-60=Good mobility Arthritis – Common after 45 Women exceed men in all joints but the knee Slender people exceed heavier people

Strength Maximum strength – Late 20’s Age 40 – 90% Age 50 – 85% Age 60 – 80%

Resistance levels for controls should not require the application of maximum strength Low enough - Prevent fatigue & discomfort High enough – Prevent inadvertent operation of controls
