[image]. What is Anthropometry ?. Anthropometry is the scientific study of human body measurements. It helps designers, architects, and engineers create spaces, products, and systems. fit human physical needs, improving comfort, safety, and performance..

[image]. Types of Anthropometry. Static: Body dimensions when still (standing height, sitting height). Dynamic: Measurements during movement (reach distance, bending). Structural vs Functional: Bone-based vs movement-based dimensions.

[image]. Percentiles. Population measurements are expressed using percentiles 5th percentile: small individuals 50th percentile: average 95th percentile: large individuals.

[image]. Applications in Architecture & Design. • Building Elements: doors, windows, handrails, stairs. • Furniture Design: desks, chairs, beds, storage. • Urban Design: pathways, signage, bus stops. • Workspace & Ergonomics: neutral posture, comfort, efficiency..
