Why is a wash basin's height limited to 3 feet when most people are 5 feet tall and have to bend to use it?
it is supposed to be that height so a man can comfortably urinate in it don't ask me why i think its one of life's little mysteries
Not all people are 5 feet tall or taller. It should be at a height at which all people can reach it, not just most people.
yet another be conscious for you would be pigme war runt. No. you're wonderful. you're who you're-be happy with that. a genuine lady is going to look into your eyes on the tall guy you're interior. do not situation approximately your top and weight. you're wonderful. i'm constructive there are a number of women who would desire to life you of their hands. Are you searching for a trucker or a physique builder? Ha! Ha! supply up annoying.
It's not really the ADA, bathroom sinks have always been TOO LOW! I am 5'9 and once lived in a very old apartment (built in 1902) and the bathroom sink was somewhere between my knee and hips. I had to bend way far over to use it. That sink contributed to my lower back problems. In very old homes the low height of the bathroom sink was due to the fact Americans were much shorter than today. Go to any antique store and look at the 100+ year old kitchen queens. Look at how low the counter top is compared to your kitchen counter at home. You CAN have your house built with higher sinks. When we remodel our house we're having our bathroom sinks built to the same height as the kitchen counters! There is no excessive bending in the kitchen, so why should I break my back in the bathroom. You can even have your kitchen designed so the dishwasher sits higher so you don't have to bend way over to load and unload it. Your screen name and the nature of your other questions suggests you are not located in North America or Western Europe. If you are indeed located in the Sub Continent, South Asians have been considerably shorter in stature than people of Western European ancestry. Asians in general -Sub Continent and Oriental have also been growing taller, but the Asian growth spurt has been slower and more recent than the ones experienced by Westerners. Home designers in your part of the world are, I am sure recognizing this fact and new housing units will be built for taller people.
Because of the ADA rules that pertain to the disabled.
