Stool height is the vertical distance from the floor to the top of the stool seat. The ideal stool height allows for a person to sit comfortably at a counter or bar without their knees being cramped or their feet dangling. It is important for maintaining good posture and comfort while seated.
The formula to calculate the ideal stool height (SH) is:
\[ SH = CH - 10 \]
Where:
Let's say the counter height (CH) is 40 inches. Using the formula:
\[ SH = 40 - 10 = 30 \text{ inches} \]
So, the ideal stool height (SH) is 30 inches.
