Furniture - Chairs and tables for educational institutions - Part 1: Functional dimensions
Also Known As:
For the design and size requirements of chairs and tables used in educational facilities, consult the DIN EN 1729-1 standard. This standard applies to both fixed and adjustable versions of a wide variety of furniture, such as chairs, stools, and tables.
The standard covers swivel and non-swivel chairs, as well as upholstered and unupholstered stools. Additionally, it offers advice for furniture made for use with laptop computers or other portable devices and acknowledges the growing popularity of portable gadgets.
It's crucial to remember that this requirement does not apply to ranked seating or workstations with specialized functions. Furthermore, it focuses only on furniture intended for use by students in educational institutions and expressly leaves out furniture used by teaching staff.
