measured in kilograms

measured in centimetres

It was calculated as the ratio of the subject's height (in meter) and weight (in kilogram) i.e. BMI= Weight/ Height2

The anthropometric measurement for child were measured in mm by Auto CAD analysis for recorded photographs from sitting position.it include:1) elbow seat height: Measured with the elbow flexed at 90°, as the vertical distance from the bottom of the tip of the elbow to the student's seated surface, 2) shoulder height: Measured as the vertical distance from the top of the shoulder at the acromion process to the student's sitting surface,3) upper limb length: Difference between the elbow height and shoulder height.

The furniture dimensions were measured in mm by Auto CAD analysis for recorded photographs from sitting position.it include: 1) seat height: Measured as a distance from the floor to the highest point on the front of the seat, 2) seat depth: Measured from the back of the sitting surface of the seat to its front,3) backrest height: The vertical distance from the desk seat to the top edge of backrest, 4)desk- seat height: The vertical distance from the seat to the top of the front edge of the desk and 5) under surface of desk height: The vertical distance from the floor to the bottom of the front edge of the shelf under the writing surface..

the percentage of compatibility for the ergonomics design of school furniture were tested by using the following equations: Equation (1): Seat height to popliteal height (N +2) cos 30°≤ SH < (N + 2) cos 5° Where SH is seat height and N is popliteal height). Equation (2): Seat depth to the popliteal-buttock length 80%M≤ SD < 95%M Where SD is seat depth and M is popliteal-buttock length. Equation (3): Backrest height:60% H≤ BH < 80% H Where BH is backrest height and H is shoulder height (scapula height). the previous equations represent the correlation between arthopemeteric measurements for the child (the user) and anthropometric measurement for school furniture.The percentage of matching and dis-matching school furniture calculated.
