In developing criteria for establishing workstation reach limits, it is essential to select the appropriate anthropometric stereotype for solving a specific design problem. The most important factor for comfortable workstation is to eliminate trunk flexion from the neutral (upright) posture. A solution to this design can be developed using population stature and link length data. This paper provides a methodology for design of comfortable workstation using anthropometric stereotype. Application of this methodology can be utilized in various designs for work space including standing and sitting workplace. For the purpose of this study, the data are measured by some parts on body such as stature, arm length, wrist height, elbow height, and shoulder hight. The samples for this study are randomly chosen from university students in Seoul and Kangnung during sixteen months (2003.3-2004.6).
