Abstract

This paper takes high storage racks as the research background. By setting storage racks of different height and depth, this paper measures the arm fetch accessibility of adults with median Anthropometric dimension under different combinations of rack height and depth, providing data support for the design of high storage rack. The test results contained the accessibility range under different heights and depths with or without people tiptoeing. Besides, this paper also illustrates the application method of the results and the application example. The advantages of reducing the depth of the high storage rack are also presented.
