ISO 5970:1979 PDF Download

The chair and table sizes specified by ISO 5970:1979 are appropriate for usage in educational facilities. The anthropometric data used to determine the proportions of the standard ensures that the furniture supports proper student seating positions. The seats and accompanying table sizes are broken down into seven categories based on a reference height in the standard. With references to the dimensions illustrated in Figures 1 and 2, the sizes are specified in Tables 1 and 2 of the Standard.

It is significant to note that this guideline does not address particular needs related to "special schools" or adjustable furniture. In order to maximize student comfort and ergonomics, ISO 5970:1979 focuses on defining functional sizes for furniture in educational facilities.
