Abstract
A detailed item-by-item analytical review of two existing government human engineering standards and the results of a users' survey on human engineering standards revealed formatting and organization problems in current human engineering standards which detract from their utility to the designer. Problems identified and recommended solutions are presented. The recommended solutions are primarily directed at improving the ability to retrieve data from the standards and as a result increasing the degree to which the human engineering discipline has an effect on design.Keywords
