Abstract: | To allow designers to evaluate presently available protective clothing systems (as well as aiding the development of less restrictive systems), it is necessary to develop evaluation techniques to quantify the loss of mobility associated with wearing protective clothing. Using fire fighter turnout gear, this study illustrates the application of the Leighton Flexometer for the measurement of restriction to body movement caused by wearing protective clothing and equipment. |
