The work of preparing International Standar
21、ds is normally carried out through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take
22、 part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.The main task of technical committees is to
23、 prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote.Attention is drawn to the possibility th

ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.ISO 15535 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 159, Ergonomics, Subcommittee SC 3, Anthropometry and biomechanics.This third edition can
25、cels and replaces the second edition (ISO 15535:2006), of which it constitutes a minor revision. Among other modifications, Annex I has been added to improve clarity.iv ISO 2012 All rights reservedBS EN ISO 15535:2012ISO 15535:2012(E)IntroductionThe well-being of people is very much dependent on the
26、ir proportional and geometric relationship with several factors, such as growth, design principles for clothing, transportation, workplace and homes, as well as sporting and recreational activities. Implementation of databases on body dimensions of a population supports essential health and safety r
27、equirements, as well as International Standards in the field of machinery safety and personal protective equipment, and has acquired importance in the devising of computer-generated manikins of the human body.One of the major difficulties in formulating international databases on anthropometry is th
28、at the numerous existing studies are rarely comparable in the strictest sense. Difficulties arise in comparing one study with another because either the methods used differ or they are not sufficiently well described. The anthropometric standards used for the data collection are fundamental to setti
29、ng up any anthropometric databases.This International Standard is intended to be used in close conjunction with ISO 7250-1. The ultimate goal is that a database developed by one researcher could be easily used by other researchers. This would be in a form that is readily accessible by those responsi
30、ble for developing standards in support of good design and health and safety requirements (e.g. ISO 15534 and ISO 14738). To achieve this goal, it has been necessary to develop an appropriate International Standard to ensure that anthropometric databases and their associated reports are internationa
31、lly compatible. ISO 2012 All rights reserved vBS EN ISO 15535:2012BS EN ISO 15535:2012General requirements for establishing anthropometric databases1 ScopeThis International Standard specifies general requirements for anthropometric databases and their associated reports that contain measurements ta
32、ken in accordance with ISO 7250-1.It provides necessary information, such as characteristics of the user population, sampling methods, measurement items and statistics, to make international comparison possible among various population segments. The population segments specified in this Internationa
33、l Standard are people who are able to hold the postures specified in ISO 7250-1.NOTE The traditional anthropometry defined in ISO 7250-1 is considered to be a necessary complement to 3-D methods which are being developed in some countries. It is important that scanned data are verified according to
34、the definitions given in ISO 7250-1 (see ISO 20685). State-of-the-art software allows integration of traditional anthropometric measures with those obtained by 3-D imaging.2 Normative referencesThe following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document.

Any deviation from this shall be indicated in the anthropometric report. It is anticipated that items other than those specified in ISO 7250-1 will be measured accordi

In such cases, definitions, methods, instruments and measurement units shall be clearly indicated in the report.4.2.2 When a measurement can be taken on both the left and right sides of the human body, the report shall clearly indicate on which side the measur
45、ement has been taken.4.2.3 Photographs or detailed sketches of the measurements taken should be provided and the measurement procedures should be documented.4.2.4 The subject shall be nude or wearing minimal clothing, shall be bareheaded and without shoes. The type of clothing, if relevant, shall be

In the event that the population is divided into several subgroups, e.g. exam location and dwelling location for either sampling or statistical reporting, this shall be stated in the report.4.3.2 It is desirable that random or stratified random sampling
