ShoulderGripLength
How to measure
Application
Used in tool, control, and steering wheel design to determine maximum comfortable reach distance from the shoulder joint.
Posture
Arm extended forward at shoulder height, hand closed in a relaxed grip.
Landmark
Measured from the bony tip of the shoulder (acromion) to the centre of the closed grip.
Tool
Tape measure.
Common mistake
Shrugging the shoulder forward during the reach inflates the result. Keep the shoulder back and relaxed.
