This Standard specifies the dimensions of openings for whole body access as applied to machinery as defined in AS 4024.1201. It provides the dimensions to which the values given in AS 4024.1703 are applicable. Values for additional space requirements are given in Appendix A. This Standard has been prepared primarily for non-mobile machinery there may be additional specific requirements for mobile machineryDimensions for passages are based on the values for either the 95th or the 99th percentiles of the expected user population. Values for the 99th percentile apply to emergency egress routes.The anthropometric data given in AS 4024.1703 originate from static measurements of nude persons and do not take into account body movements, clothing, equipment, machinery operating conditions or environmental conditions.This Standard shows how to combine the anthropometric data with suitable allowances to take these factors into accountSituations where people are to be prevented from reaching a hazard are dealt with in AS 4024.1801.

Originated as part of AS 4024.1(Int)-1992.
Previous edition part of AS 4024.1-1996.
