Procedure
Technical Report
Overview
The Technical Report DIN CEN ISO/TR 7250-2 provides statistical summaries of body measurements together with database background information for working age people in the national populations of individual ISO member bodies. The data in this Technical Report are intended for use in conjunction with ISO standards for equipment design and safety, which require ISO 7250-1 body measurement input, wherever national specificity of design parameters is required. Body measurement data for technological design need to be reliable in terms of representing the intended population and measurement quality. To ensure the comparability of measurement results, body dimensions in this Technical Report are measured according to ISO 7250-1. To ensure the reliability of statistical data, databases from which statistics are calculated adhere to ISO 15535. Amendment 1 of the Technical Report DIN CEN ISO/TR 7250-2 supplements statistical summaries of body measurements for the Chinese population. Amendment 1 to ISO/TR 7250-2:2010 has been prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 159 "Ergonomics" of the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) and has been adopted as CEN/ISO TR 7250-2:2011 by Technical Committee CEN/TC 122 "Ergonomics", the secretariat of which is held by DIN (Germany). At DIN, the German Institute for Standardization e. V. the committee responsible for this purpose at the Ergonomics Standards Committee (NAErg) is Joint Working Committee NA 023-00-03 GA "Anthropometrie und Biomechanik" ("Anthropometry and biomechanics").
