Conceptual design of bio-composite chair and desk based on anthropometric data

This study is undertaken to design an anthropometrically enhanced Bio- Composite Chair and Desk to be used by students of Polytechnics in Malaysia . The Pugh total design method was used for this conceptual design and. There are 4 important stages in this study. First, evaluation of the anthropom...
