Foreword
GB/T 18717 Ergonomic Design for the Safety of Machinery is divided into three parts.
---Part 1. Principles for Determining the Dimensions Required for Openings for
Whole-body Access into Machinery;
---Part 2. Principles for Determining the Dimensions Required for Openings for
Access of Parts of the Body into Machinery;
---Part 3. Anthropometric Data.
This Part is the first part of GB/T 18717; it is corresponding to ISO 15534-1. 2000
Ergonomic Design for the Safety of Machinery - Part 1. Principles for Determining the
Dimensions Required for Openings for Whole-body Access into Machinery (English
version). The degree of consistency between this Part and Part 1 in ISO 15534-1.
Ergonomic Design for the Safety of Machinery is non-equivalent. Please see the main
differences below.
---The Introduction part and the involved Bibliography [2] in the previous
international standard are deleted;
---Three reference standards in the previous international standard are modified
into corresponding national standards;
---GB/T 12985-1991 General Rules of Using Percentiles of the Body Dimensions
for Products Design is added to the Bibliography part in the previous
international standard;
---On the premise of the same conditions for the measurement of human body
dimension, GB/T 5703-1999 Basic Human Body Measurements for
Technological Design (please refer to Bibliography [1]) shall prevail in terms of
human body measurement.
In this Part, Appendix A is normative; Appendix B is informative.
This Part was proposed by General Administration of Quality Supervision, Inspection

Ergonomic Design for the Safety of Machinery - Part 1.
Principles for Determining the Dimensions Required
for Openings for Whole-body Access into Machinery
1 Scope
This Part specifies five dimensions required for openings (minimum opening
dimensions, please refer to Bibliography [2]) for whole-body access into machinery
(please refer to 3.1 in GB/T 15706.1-1995), and eleven formulas for the calculation of
opening dimension which combine anthropometric data (human body dimension) and
additional space (allowances).
Please refer to Table 1 in GB/T 18717.3-2002 for anthropometric data. Please refer to
Appendix A in this Part for the numerical value of additional space.
Dimensions for passages are based on the values for either the 95th or the 99th
percentiles of the expected user population (please refer to 3.1 in Bibliography [2]).
Values for the 99th percentile apply to emergency egress routes.
The anthropometric data given in GB/T 18717.3-2002 originates from static
measurements of nude persons, and do not take into account body movements,
clothing, equipment, machinery-operating conditions or environmental conditions.
This Part is applicable to non-mobile machinery. In terms of mobile machinery, there
may be additional specific requirements.
Situations where people are to be prevented from reaching a hazard are elaborated in
GB 12265.1.

Anthropometric Data (neq ISO 15534-2. 2000)
3 General Requirements
This Part specifies the dimensions required for openings for human body’s ingress and
egress of machinery in five positions. Other than basic anthropometric data, the
numerical value of these dimensions shall also consider specific details regarding the
operator and the operating conditions. It is necessary to add allowances to permit
unhindered and safe entry and working.
In this aspect, the following criteria of are particular significance.
a) Factors that influence convenient access.
1) The type of clothing, for example, light or heavy clothing;
2) Whether tools are being carried, for example, for maintenance or repair
purposes;
3) Whether there is additional equipment, for example, personal protective
equipment (including protective clothing), or portable lighting is being
carried or worn;
4) The demands of the task, for example, posture, nature and speed of
movement, lines of sight, application of force;
5) Frequency and duration of task;
6) Length of passage, for example, through a relatively thin wall (wall of a tank
or a groove) where there is space for movement at the exit, or through a
channel-type passage;
7) The amount of space available to allow for the dynamic nature of movement
to escape from danger;
8) The position and size of supports for the body, such as foot support, and
hand holds;
b) Environmental conditions (such as darkness, heat, moisture and noise);
c) Level of risk during the task.
The allowances needed in the above-mentioned items depend on the particular
