Abstract
This paper presents the results of anthropometric data collected for Saudi male workers working in different occupations in Riyadh the capital city of the kingdom. A set of 15 body measurements are collected for 154 subjects aged 25-60. Anthropometric tables were constructed that can be utilized by designers, healthcare professionals and private and government agencies. It is believed that this is the first anthropometric study for the working men in the country and availability of such data will allow for safe and convenient work place design.
