The goal of this study is to obtain accurate human dimension of current Chinese shape. Anthropometric data of adult male in GB10000-88 is adopted as sample observation data in this paper. Based on similarity theory of human body and the correlation of human body static dimensions, by statistical analysis of the sample date, the regression equation is established which determines the relationship between measurement of each part of the male body and height, weight. The maximum measurement error is within 5% by comparing the measurement data with calculating dimension data obtained by regression equations established in the paper, which verifies the rationality and accuracy of the regression equations. Once parameters of height and weight are given, the regression equations can quickly and easily provide effective body dimensions data used to build crash simulation model specifically for Chinese and man-machine product.
