Ergonomic design of control centres - Part 4: Layout and dimensions of workstations (ISO 11064-4:2013)

ISO 11064-4:2013 specifies ergonomic principles, recommendations and requirements for the design of workstations found in control centres. It covers control workstation design with particular emphasis on layout and dimensions. It is applicable primarily to seated, visual-display-based workstations, although control workstations at which operators stand are also addressed. These different types of control workstation are to be found in applications such as transportation control, process control and security installations. Most of these workstations now incorporate flat-display screens for the presentation of information.

Ergonomische Gestaltung von Leitzentralen - Teil 4: Auslegung und Maße von Arbeitsplätzen (ISO 11064-4:2013)

Dieser Teil von ISO 11064 legt ergonomische Grundsätze, Empfehlungen und Anforderungen für die Gestaltung von Arbeitsplätzen in Leitzentralen fest. Dabei werden besonders Auslegung und Maße bei der Gestaltung von Leitplätzen berücksichtigt. Diese Norm ist vor allem anwendbar auf Sitzarbeitsplätze mit Bildschirmgeräten, obgleich Leitplätze, an denen Operatoren stehen, ebenfalls angesprochen werden. Diese verschiedenen Leitplätze finden zum Beispiel Anwendung in der Transport- und Prozesslenkung und in Sicherheitseinrichtungen. Die meisten dieser Arbeitsplätze umfassen jetzt Flachbildschirme zur Darstellung von Information.

Conception ergonomique des centres de commande - Partie 4: Agencement et dimensionnement du poste de travail (ISO 11064-4:2013)

L'ISO 11064-4:2013 spécifie des principes ergonomiques, des recommandations et des exigences relatives à la conception des postes de travail dans les centres de commande. Elle traite de la conception des pupitres de conduite, en prêtant une attention particulière à l'agencement et au dimensionnement. Elle couvre principalement les postes de travail pour posture assise et équipés d'écrans de visualisation, mais concerne également les pupitres de conduite pour posture debout. Ces différents types de pupitres de conduite sont mis en place dans des applications touchant à des domaines tels que le contrôle du transport, la commande de processus et les installations de sécurité. La plupart de ces postes de travail intègrent à l'heure actuelle des écrans plats pour la présentation des informations.

Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards
bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out
through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical
committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International
organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work.
ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of
electrotechnical standardization.
The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are
described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular the different approval criteria needed for the
different types of ISO documents should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the
editorial rules of the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2. www.iso.org/directives

ISO 11064-4:2013(E)
Introduction
This part of ISO 11064 establishes ergonomic requirements, recommendations and guidelines for the
design of workplaces in control centres.
All types of control centres are covered, including those for the process industry, transport and
dispatching systems and emergency services. Although this part of ISO 11064 is primarily intended for
non-mobile control centres, many of the principles are relevant to mobile centres such as those found on
ships, locomotives and aircraft.
User requirements are a central theme of this part of ISO 11064 and the processes described are designed
to take into account the needs of users at all design stages. The overall strategy for dealing with user
requirements is presented in ISO 11064-1. ISO 11064-2 provides guidance on the design and planning of the
control room in relation to its supporting areas. Requirements for the layout of the control room are covered
by ISO 11064-3. Displays and controls, human computer interaction and the physical working environment
are presented in ISO 11064-5 and ISO 11064-6. Evaluation principles are dealt with in ISO 11064-7.
The users of this standard are assumed to have some understanding of anthropometry, its use and
limitations, and its application in the context of control rooms. Where this understanding is in doubt, it
is recommended that the advice of an expert be sought.
The ultimate beneficiaries of this part of ISO 11064 will be the operator within the control room and
other such users. It is the needs of these users that provide the ergonomic requirements that are
addressed by the International Standards developers. Although it is unlikely that the end user will read
this International Standard, or even know of its existence, its application should provide the user with
interfaces that are more usable and a working environment which is more consistent with operational
demands, and result in a solution which will improve system performance, minimize error and enhance
productivity.
