Office chair design: a systematic approach of ergonomic design based on the anthropometric measurement of Bangladeshi people

Abstract

The world of ergonomic evaluation considerate the human biomechanics and anthropometric measurement an integral part of product design and development work. In this paper, we have given an attempt to design an ergonomically fitted office chair suitable for Bangladeshi people. In this paper, the anthropometric data analysis has been done in order to determine the necessary dimensions suitable for the office chair. Lastly, an ergonomically fitted office chair is designed based on this anthropometric data analysis. The concept of the paper is to focus on the dimensional changes that the Bangladeshi people need for their comfort in the ergonomic office chair. The structural difference in different regions makes us inspired to think about the office chair ergonomics for Bangladeshi people. In short, this paper reflects the entire process of designing an ergonomic office chair suitable for them.
