Abstract(s)
The focus of the current study was to set the benchmark for designing school furniture for Portuguese primary schools, taking into account the characterization and analysis of a previously selected sample of students. Considering the anthropometric data of the Portuguese children with ages between six and ten years old and its treatment, it was possible to set benchmarks for the design of school furniture for Portuguese primary schools, as well as to develop a methodological guide for adjusting the furniture according to the student’s stature. The obtained results seem to be very relevant as they provide a scientific basis for the design and compatible with the anthropometric dimensions of the considered population of users.
