ABSTRACT

Anthropometry is the measurement and comparison of different body shapes and sizes in the general population. This standard presents anthropometric data representative of the Australian Defence Force (ADF) Army, specifies the summary values for 84 anthropometric dimensions, provides a set of boundary manikins and provides guidance on how the data presented can be used to perform anthropometric assessments to assess fit, clearance, reach, vision and/or posture of a human operator in a system using a risk based approach. This standard is to be used to evaluate soldier systems for use by the ADF Army in terms of user fit, clearance, reach, vision and posture. Applicable systems include platforms that soldiers work in, or are transported in, and body worn equipment. Given that a built system is not a requirement of the processes described, this standard can also be used early in the design process to de-risk the design process. It must be noted that the data provided in this report are representative of the 2012 ADF Army population. The impacts of secular changes are not addressed in this standard. Should secular changes be identified as of importance, appropriate modifications should be made to the data contained in this standard. This report supports Defence outcomes by providing an up to date anthropometric dataset that is representative of Australian Army personnel. This will allow assessments to be made of the performance of existing and new soldier systems in terms of fit, clearance, reach, vision and posture.

A Preliminary Anthropometry Standard for Australian Defence Force Army Equipment

Evaluation

Executive Summary Anthropometry is the measurement and comparison of different body shapes and sizes in the general population. Datasets are constructed by measuring body dimensions of a large sample of personnel. In 2012 a survey of male and female Australian Defence Force (ADF) Army personnel was completed. This survey is known as the Australian Warfighter Anthropometry Survey (AWAS). The results of this survey have been used as the basis of this standard and supersede all previous ADF Army anthropometric data. This standard presents anthropometric data representative of ADF Army personnel. It also presents guidance for the application of this data for assessing the level of physical accommodation provided by the ADF Army equipment and platforms. This standard is to be used to evaluate soldier systems for use by the ADF Army in terms of user fit, clearance, reach, vision and posture. Applicable systems include platforms that soldiers work in, or are transported in, and body-worn equipment. Given that a built system is not a requirement of the processes described, this standard can also be used early in the design process to de-risk the design process. Three bodies of data are presented in this standard:

Univariate statistics; statistical data for 84 human body dimensions. Multivariate statistics; seven boundary manikins that represent the extremes

of the Army user population. Protective Equipment and Clothing Correction Factors (PECCFs); corrections

that can be applied to anthropometric data to account for the equipment worn by Army personnel.

Broadly, it is intended that for vehicles and other habitable areas the multivariate boundary manikins can be used to build digital human models and/or select trial participants for vehicle design evaluations. The manikins are naked and the relevant PECCFs should be added according to the equipment ensemble worn by the crew. For dismounted equipment, where an item is designed to fit on or near the skin, it is intended that the univariate statistics be used. The relevant PECCF should be added where an item is required to be worn over the top of existing items. Guidance on the assessment of user fit, clearance, reach, vision and posture is provided in the report based on identifying key task points and possible risks for each task. The identification of possible risks has been addressed through the use of these five

keywords: fit, clearance, reach, vision and posture. This guides the reader into the selection of an appropriate assessment procedure. Guidelines are provided for the performance of univariate and multivariate assessment methods. These include how to use the data contained within this report, how to generate pass/fail criteria and reporting requirements. It must be noted that the data provided in this report are representative of the 2012 ADF Army population. The impacts of secular changes are not addressed in this standard. Should secular changes be identified as being of importance, appropriate modifications should be made to the data contained in this standard. This report supports Defence outcomes by providing an up to-date anthropometric dataset that is representative of Australian Army personnel. This will allow assessments to be made of the performance of existing and new soldier systems in terms of fit, clearance, reach, vision and posture.

1. Scope

1.1 Identification

Anthropometry is the measurement and comparison of different body shapes and sizes in the general population. Datasets are constructed by measuring body dimensions of a large sample of personnel. In 2012 a survey of male and female Australian Defence Force (ADF) Army personnel was completed known as the Australian Warfighter Anthropometry Survey (AWAS). The results of this survey are reported as the basis of this standard and supersede all previous ADF Army anthropometric data. This standard presents anthropometric data representative of ADF Army personnel and guidance for the application of this data for assessing the level of physical accommodation provided by the ADF Army equipment and platforms. 1.2 Australian Warfighter Anthropometry Survey

The AWAS measured 2138 full time ADF Army personnel (277 females and 1861 males), aged between 18 and 40 years. The Corp profile was broadly representative of the users of Armoured Fighting Vehicles such as the M113 Armoured Personnel Carrier and Australian Light Armoured Vehicle (ASLAV). Corps sampled included Armour, Artillery, Electrical and Mechanical Engineers, Engineers, Infantry, Medical, Transport, Signals, Ordnance and Special Forces. Given the use of the AWAS as the basis for this standard, this data should only be used for assessment of equipment for use by the Australian Army. Any differences between the data presented in this standard and that for other nations and/or user groups is not quantified in this standard and would require consideration if this data were used for a user group dissimilar to that sampled by AWAS. 1.3 System Overview

This document provides a preliminary standard for anthropometry applicable to the ADF Army. This document has been developed by DSTO and is intended to be used for consultation with ADF stakeholders, international partners and industry prior to it being released as an Australian Defence Standard (DEF (AUST)). As such, the language used reflects the intention for it to be released as an DEF(AUST). The procedures and data provided within this standard are to be used to evaluate soldier systems for use by the Australian Army in terms of user fit, clearance, reach, vision and posture. Applicable systems include platforms that soldiers work in or are transported in and body worn equipment. In addition to providing a method for producing verification evidence for completed system designs, it is intended that the data and procedures given in this standard can be used early in the design process to de-risk the design process as a built system is not a requirement of the processes described in this standard. The data provided within this standard can also be used to support the specification of requirements, the design of soldier systems and the specification of trial participants for user trials to evaluate soldier systems.

1.4 Document Overview

This standard identifies and specifies the summary values for 84 anthropometric dimensions, provides a set of boundary manikins and provides guidance on how the data presented can be used to perform anthropometric assessments. This document is intended to be used by Human Factors Specialists, Requirements Managers and Engineers to define appropriate requirements, design systems to meet said requirements and provide validation evidence that said requirements have been met. No part of this document is classified for security purposes.

3. Application Guidelines

3.1 General Requirements

The Function and Performance Specification (FPS) of a project shall state whether the data required is male and female or one gender only. Where no specific statement exists then both gender data shall be used as the default. The FPS shall state the level of accommodation required. This is predominantly defined as being either:

“Full Accommodation” – The design shall physically accommodate the central 98% of users. It is expected that this level of accommodation will be specified at times when operator fit, clearance, reach, vision or posture is a key factor in the system and impinging of any of these factors will result in large safety and/or performance issues.

“Majority Accommodation” – The design shall physically accommodate the central 90% of users. It is expected that this level of accommodation will be specified at times when operator fit, clearance, reach, vision or posture is a factor in the system and impinging of any of these factors may result in safety and/or performance issues.

Where specifications state “5th to 95th percentile range” as the level of accommodation this should be taken to equate to the “majority accommodation”. However, current good practice for defining accommodation range is to state the percentage of the population that should be accommodated, as per the definitions above. Legacy statements such as “5th to 95th percentile” should be avoided. 3.2 Use of Data

Three bodies of data are presented in this standard: Univariate statistics; statistical data for specific human body dimensions (see Section

4). Multivariate statistics; a range of boundary manikins that represent the extremes of the

Army user population (see Section 5). Protective Equipment and Clothing Correction Factors (PECCFs); corrections that can

be applied to the univariate and multivariate data to account for the equipment worn by Army personnel (see Section 6).

Broadly, it is intended that for vehicles and other habitable areas the multivariate boundary manikins can be used to build digital human models and/or select trial participants in order to evaluate vehicle design. The manikins are naked and the PECCFs must be added according to the ensemble stated in the FPS. For dismounted Soldier Combat Ensemble (SCE) equipment, where an item is designed to fit on or near the skin, it is intended that the univariate statistics shall be used. Where an item is required to be worn over the top of existing SCE items then the relevant PECCF should be added. The data provided within this document is intended to be used to assess fit, clearance, reach, vision and/or posture of a human operator in a system, risks and examples are provided in Table 1. It is recommended that the anthropometric assessment types given in Table 1 are

Page 15: A Preliminary Anthropometry Standard for Australian Army ... · A Preliminary Anthropometry Standard for Australian Defence Force Army Equipment Evaluation Executive Summary Anthropometry

UNCLASSIFIED DSTO-TR-3006

UNCLASSIFIED 5

assessed using either univariate or multivariate methods, depending on the complexity of the assessment required. The procedure recommended for choosing between univariate and multivariate assessments is shown in Figure 1. This process is based on identifying key task points where risks may be present within each task. The identification of possible risks is done through the use of five keywords which correspond to the types of assessments that can be performed using anthropometric data; fit, clearance, reach, vision and posture. Stage 1.5 of the procedure shown in Figure 1 requires the assessor to identify if the assessment aspect and task risk is “Defined by a single dimension.” This should be taken to mean the assessment can be performed through the consideration of only one anthropometric measure (or anthropometric measures that are independent of each other). For example, when assessing Fit (assessment aspect) when passing through a doorway (key task point), there is a risk of hitting the head (task risk). In this example there is only one key dimension: Stature (M38). . However, when assessing reach (assessment aspect) to controls when seated in a vehicle (key task point), there is a risk of not being able to reach a control (task risk). In this example there are multiple key dimensions which define the reach envelope; Acromion height, sitting (M10) and Thumbtip reach (M37). Therefore the number of (dependent) dimensions is considered the key factor during the assessment. 3.3 Secular changes considerations

In the context of anthropometry, secular changes are taken to refer to changes in the values for each dimension that occur from generation to generation, and should be taken into account for the life of a system. These changes are commonly attributed to changes in environmental variables such as diet. The data provided in this report are representative of the 2012 ADF Army population as defined in Section 1.1 and 1.2. The impact of secular growth changes are not addressed in this standard and, should secular growth be identified as of importance, appropriate modifications should be made to the data contained in this standard.

Table 1 Anthropometric assessment types

Assessment type

Definition Risks Example

Fit Does the system accommodate the specified range of users?

Performance – full range of users unable to operate system given that they cannot fit within it or the equipment will not fit them Safety - users may compromise their safety to operate the system

Does a helmet fit the specified user population in terms of head size?

Clearance Does the system prevent undesirable contact with the body

Performance - if users are immobilised then they will be unable to continue working. If access to controls are impinged, then the user’s ability to operate the system will be reduced Safety - injury may be caused by the body striking nearby equipment or getting trapped

Will the driver's head strike equipment fitted to the vehicle ceiling?

Reach

Does the system provide suitable placement of controls and/or equipment?

Performance - if controls cannot be operated then this prevents the system operation Safety - if safety features such as handholds and fire extinguishers cannot be reached then this increases the risk of injury

Can the driver reach the steering whilst simultaneously operating the accelerator/brake?

Vision

Does the system allow a suitable eye point to be achieved to provide the user with an appropriate field of view?

Performance - if the user cannot achieve a suitable eye point to see what is needed for the task then they cannot perform the task optimally Safety - if the user does not see a hazard, then this may result in injury either to themselves or another

Can a suitable eye point be achieved to provide the user with a field of view that allows a sight picture to be taken on a vehicle mounted weapon?

Posture1

Does the system allow a safe, comfortable and effective posture to be achieved?

Performance - poor posture will increase user fatigue which may reduce performance Safety - poor posture increases the stress placed on the body and increases the risk of musculoskeletal injury

Does the vehicle allow the driver to maintain a posture that supports the driving task?

1 Anthropometric analysis is one part of posture assessment. Posture assessment also requires consideration of other aspects such as task frequency, time posture is held, forces applied to/by the body, support of the limbs and joint angles. As such, posture assessment should be performed by a suitably qualified Human Factors Subject Matter Expert (SME).

4. Univariate Statistics

4.1 Introduction

Summary statistics for each of the anthropometric measurements collected by the AWAS study are presented in this section with guidance for their application. All landmarks used during the collection of these measurements are presented in Annex A. 4.2 Univariate Assessment Procedure

The univariate assessment procedure, shown in Figure 2, is intended to be used for assessments where one anthropometric dimension is considered key and unrelated to other body dimensions. For example, Stature might be considered the key dimension when assessing clearance through a doorway. It should be noted that there are some instances where more than one dimension is considered key; however, as they are unrelated each can be assessed separately using the univariate assessment procedure. This procedure requires four inputs:

The key anthropometric dimension; determined through consideration of the identified task and risk.

The relevant PECCF (if required); using the tables provided at Section 6. The worst case percentiles based on the specified level of accommodation2; the largest

and/or smallest users for the target user population. Any miscellaneous adjustments (if required); any other adjustments that should be

added, for example a comfort clearance. These inputs are used to create assessment pass-fail criteria through addition of the relevant percentile measurements for each dimension, PECCFs and miscellaneous adjustments. For example, if fit (assessment aspect) is being assessed when passing through a doorway (key task point) to identify if there is a risk of hitting the head (task risk), the pass-fail criteria for a majority accommodation requirement can be calculated through the summation shown in Table 2. The pass-fail criteria produced can then be applied to the system; either using Computer Aided Design (CAD) data, drawings of the system or physical measurement of a prototype. Table 2 Example pass fail criteria calculation

2 Given that univariate assessments are defined by their use on a single key dimension, “Full accommodation” should be taken to refer to 1st percentile to 99th percentile for the key anthropometric dimension. “Majority accommodation” should be taken to refer to 5th percentile to 95th percentile for the key anthropometric dimension.

Reporting from this assessment should provide sufficient information to permit the assessment to be repeated, including:

A description of the task assessed, key task points, perceived risk and assessment type. A summary of the inputs used. A drawing and/or image of the assessment that shows the measurements taken,

including relevant body landmarks used. Any measurement delta(s) for the assessment, for example clearances between the body

and equipment3. A risk statement for any assessment failures which states the likelihood and

consequence associated with the risk.

3 Provision of the measurement delta is intended to allow the degree of compliance to be identified, which will in turn support the risk assessment

5. Multivariate Statistics

5.1 Introduction

Boundary manikins have been produced through factor analysis of the univariate data provided at Section 4. The factor analyses performed used the dimensions considered critical to land vehicle design and the design of vehicles in which Army personnel may be transported. These dimensions were used to define the underlying critical human body size factors. Manikins that demonstrate the extremes of these factors can then be used to validate a design in terms of the central 90% of the population, as defined by MIL-STD 1472G [2012]. The boundary manikins provided within this standard are based on measurements considered critical for land vehicle design/assessment and the majority level of accommodation (central 90%). As such, these boundary manikins may be inappropriate for other applications and different levels of required accommodation, for example dismounted equipment design/assessment and the requirement for the full level of accommodation. Should boundary manikins be required for other applications or levels of accommodation then DSTO Land Division, Land Human Systems Branch should be contacted for advice. The boundary manikins presented in this standard represent the majority level of accommodation for the AWAS dataset. The following boundary manikins are provided:

Manikin A: Overall smallest female Manikin B: Widest male Manikin C: Largest upper body size:lower body size male Manikin D: Smallest upper body size:lower body size male Manikin E: Overall largest male Manikin F: Overall smallest male Manikin G: Average male

5.2 Multivariate Assessment Procedure

The multivariate assessment procedure, shown in Figure 8, is intended to be used in combination with univariate assessments to support military land vehicle design and evaluation. As the univariate assessment procedure is quicker to apply than the multivariate assessment procedure, univariate assessments should be performed first to provide initial assessments of the vehicle in terms of single anthropometric dimensions, for example to identify any occupant fit issues. The multivariate assessment procedure should then be applied to assess aspects that are related to multiple anthropometric dimensions, for example reach to controls. The multivariate assessment procedure is intended to be used for assessment where more than one anthropometric dimension is considered key and the dimensions are related to each other in the assessment. For example, multiple anthropometric variables will need to be considered when assessing reach in military land vehicles, given that both the height of the shoulder and the length of the arm will be influential on the reach envelope. It should be noted that there are some instances where more than one dimension is considered key, however, if these are not key for the same assessment aspects then each can be assessed separately using the univariate assessment procedure. For example when assessing fit through a doorway, stature and bideltoid width might be considered key dimensions. However, given that they are not dependent on each other these might be assessed more efficiently using two univariate assessments rather than one multivariate assessment.

Given the nature of land vehicle design and evaluation, it is intended that the multivariate assessment procedure is used in combination with univariate assessments. For example when assessing a vehicle driving position, initial univariate assessments might include fit in terms of bideltoid width and seated height to check that the driver would fit in the vehicle. This would allow relatively quick assessment of fit to be made and issues identified. Assuming that no issues are identified by the univariate assessments, this would then be followed with multivariate assessments to provide a more detailed assessment of the driving position. The multivariate procedure requires three inputs:

The boundary manikins; as defined in Section 5.3. The relevant PECCFs; using the tables provided at Section 6. Any miscellaneous adjustments (if required); any other adjustments that should be

added, for example a comfort clearance. The assessment procedure consists of four phases intended to be performed using a Digital Human Modelling (DHM) package; i) manikin construction, ii) the application of PECCFs, iii) placing the boundary manikin in the CAD model and then iv) assessing the risks identified. This is conducted for each boundary manikin in turn. It is outside the scope of this document to detail this process within a DHM package, in part due to the differences between DHM packages. In the multivariate assessment procedure shown in Figure 8, Stage 3.3 “Place boundary manikin in CAD model” will require tailoring against the required task. A suggested method for placing a boundary manikin at the driving position in a military land vehicle is provided in Figure 9. It is recommended that this be used as a basis for all vehicle postures and modified to reflect the task performed. Test methods, pass-fail criteria and reporting requirements for each assessment aspect are shown in Table 8. It is noted that whilst fit, clearance, reach and vision can be assessed using visual methods, posture assessment is more complex. Posture assessment requires consideration of aspects such as task frequency, task duration, forces applied to/by the body, support of the limbs and joint angles. As such, it should be assessed against the risks of user injury and task performance impairment by a suitably qualified Human Factors Subject Matter Expert (SME). Reporting from these assessment types should provide sufficient information to permit the assessment to be repeated, including:

Descriptions of the task assessed, key task points, perceived risk and assessment type. The anthropometric dimensions considered key to the assessment. A summary of the inputs used. An image of the assessment that shows how all assessments were performed, the

measurements taken and body landmarks used for each boundary. The outputs listed for each assessment type in Table 8 for each boundary manikin. A risk statement for any assessment failures which states the likelihood and

consequence associated with the risk.

6. Personal Equipment and Clothing Correction Factors

6.1 Introduction

Anthropometric data are taken in a semi-nude state in order to accurately measure body dimensions. Statistical correction factors are therefore required to be added to the semi-nude data in order to represent the additional dimensions and volume of a soldier’s encumbered state. This can include items such as boots, body armour and helmet. Collectively these statistical corrections are termed Personal Equipment and Clothing Correction Factors (PECCF). When conducting either a univariate or multivariate assessment, relevant PECCFs should be added to the percentile data to represent an ADF Soldier wearing Soldier Combat Ensemble (SCE). Note that although anthropometric data is presented as two datasets; male and female, there is only one PECCF dataset which is applied to both the male and female data. 6.2 PECCF Data

PECCFs based on measurements collected of two ADF Soldier Combat Ensembles are summarised in Table 10. This table shows PECCF data for driver and dismounted close combatant Soldier Combat Ensembles wearing warm weather and cold weather clothing. These ensembles worn with warm weather clothing can be seen in Figure 10 and Figure 11.

CITATION IN OTHER DOCUMENTS Yes 18. DSTO RESEARCH LIBRARY THESAURUS Army, Anthropometry, Standards 19. ABSTRACT Anthropometry is the measurement and comparison of different body shapes and sizes in the general population. This standard presents anthropometric data representative of Australian Defence Force (ADF) Army, specifies the summary values for 84 anthropometric dimensions, provides a set of boundary manikins and provides guidance on how the data presented can be used to perform anthropometric assessments to assess fit, clearance, reach, vision and/or posture of a human operator in a system using a risk based approach. The procedures and data provided within this standard are intended to be used to evaluate soldier systems for use by the Australian Army in terms of user fit, clearance, reach, vision and posture. Soldier systems that this is applicable to include land vehicles and body worn equipment. In addition to providing a method for producing verification evidence for completed system designs, it is intended that the data and procedures given in this standard can be used early in the design process to de-risk the design process as a built system is not a requirement of the processes described in this standard. It must be noted that the data provided in this report is representative of the 2012 ADF Army population. The impact of secular growth

changes are not addressed in this standard and, should secular growth be identified as of importance, appropriate modifications should be made to he data contained in this standard. This report supports Defence outcomes by providing an up to date anthropometric dataset that is representative of Australian Army personnel. This will allow assessments to be made of the performance of existing and new soldier systems in terms of fit, clearance, reach, vision and posture.
