In developing countries, most classroom furniture has been found to have caused distractions and injuries to users due to wooden material and lack of quality. It can be used to provide pertinent students’ anthropometric specifications, which can be used to put out critical information for school furniture design. In educational ambiances, anthropometry has become a crucial discipline. Consequently, it has implications for the students’ learning productivity and students’ comfort in the study environment. Ĭlassroom furniture is a critical factor for the adoption of proper postures. The anthropometry data are essential for applying ergonomic principles for the design and improvement of different products. Anthropometry and ergonomics have been used to develop new furniture forms by incorporating adjustability to accommodate a broader range of people and populations. The furniture’s function is to facilitate learning and provide a convenient, stressless environment. However, their successful function is dependent on its usability for people. Products are design based on specific functions that benefit users. The proposed MCDM approach can be used widely in furniture procurement processes and educational environments. The Sensitivity Analysis was performed in two ways: changing the weights of criteria in nine scenarios and comparing the results with five other MCDM methods. According to the results, Type 1 and Type 3 were the best current classroom furniture.

The results indicated that Underneath Desk Height and Seat to Desk Clearance showed the highest levels of the match, while Seat Width presents the highest levels of low mismatch. Mismatch analyses were carried out using mismatch equations, and the Simple Additive Weighting method was used as a base method to solve the decision-making problem. Ten anthropometric measures were gathered, together with eight furniture dimensions for four types of chairs. The sample consisted of 111 participants (71 males, 40 females). This study was aimed to compare and rank different classroom furniture types based on the mismatch between collegians’ anthropometric measures and the dimensions of classroom furniture among Industrial Engineering students by developing a Multi-Criteria Decision Making approach in an integrated Methodology. In Iranian universities, the use of chairs with an attached table is widespread, while the study of mismatches in these chairs among the collegian community is rare. In Iran, collegians spend at least a quarter of the day hours at university in the sitting position, so it is essential to evaluate furniture mismatch among university students. The mismatch between students’ anthropometric measures and school furniture dimensions have been investigated in many countries.
