Intect assignment: The body shop

Before we started on the assigment, we learnt about anthropometry and ergonomics. We need to understand that proportion is important as it enables comfort and the use of the ease of use of elements. Therefore, in this assignment, we measured and documented our drawings and dimensions of our body.

In Exercise 1 & 2, we explored variations of different stationary and moving position. From these positions, we measured and recorded the dimension of our own body.

After completing Exercise 3(measuring of staircase), we learnt that the riser, thread and railing have certain standard dimensions as ergonomics is important to provide comfort and ease in the enviroment for human use.

In Exercise 4, we explored the relationship of the working body with different kinds of furniture.
