Sizes of tables-books

It is not so important whether you choose furniture in the market or in a store, search for it on the Internet or make it on an individual order. In any case, an error in sizing can have very serious consequences. Therefore, it is necessary to know what the standard values ​​of the tables-books and by what principles they are calculated.

Designers and furniture designers, both those who work on serial products and those who work on fulfilling individual orders, necessarily take into account ergonomics. After all, it is necessary not only to provide convenience and comfort of use, but also to preserve the health of the consumer. Table-book must have strictly defined dimensions.

If it is written, then the working area should be at least 80x50 centimeters. The standard for dining tables of rectangular configuration provides that the legs should be at a distance of 91 cm from each other.In this gap, two chairs freely enter, and each person sitting gets his part of the working space - 50x30 cm. These figures are determined on the basis of the anatomical parameters of the average person.

When deciding to assemble a table-book at home, be guided by such sizes of individual parts:

• Table top - 2 DSP units 705x800 mm and 1 block 350x800 mm;

• legs and frame are made of 4x4 centimeters and 2x4 cm rails;

• side walls assembled from a pair of boards of 350x730 mm.

Tables, books, when they are folded, take up less space than regular tables. But it is impossible not to take into account their dimensions in the opened form, because it is judged by them whether it is possible to put the furniture in a certain place and how convenient it will be.

Released several decades ago, the folded tables have dimensions of 30x76x85 cm, and 170x76x85 cm in the opened one. Similar models are still available today, although other proportions are becoming more and more popular (60 cm wide). When in the table of a classical format half of the tabletop is open, its dimensions are 100x76x85 cm, respectively.

Large "books" of the modern sample can measure 32x80x75 centimeters in a compact state, and 235x80x75 after opening. Such sizes are quite enough even for a large family. The standard dimensions of the tables for kitchens and loggias are 130x60x75 cm. It is not necessary to consider miniature furniture that is not sufficiently functional, even with dimensions of 75x60x75 cm, the design can be equipped with a rolling drawer for kitchen utensils.

Practical can be considered any tables, whose height is at least 50, and width - 70 centimeters. The thickness of the tabletop on the aesthetics of the entire product does not affect in any way. For each person seated, the dining table should be at least 60 cm wide and 40 cm deep. In this case, at least 20 cm in the central part will have to be given for cutlery, so that they are not taken into account.

A classic rectangular table implies the presence of four people at dinner. Therefore, its dimensions in the unfolded state should be 0.75 m in height, 1-1.2 m in length and 0.8 meter in width.

Narrow and long tables allow to seat as many people as wide products.Do not be afraid of lack of space, because the dishes easily moves to the pedestals or somewhere else if necessary. Note that the height of the work area for cutting products can not be less than 90 cm in lengthotherwise it will be uncomfortable to cook. For tall people fit kitchen tables with a height of 94 centimeters and above.

From the edge of the table top to any other furniture or wall there should be a gap of at least one meter. A 90x90 cm square table allows you to quietly dine (have dinner, have breakfast) to four people at a time.

In some cases, tables, books get for writing work. Their depth when unfolding is immediately increased by a meter (if at first it was 20 or 60 cm, then it will be 120 or 160 in the unfolded state). It is advisable to use the most compact solutions if the room is very small or if no more than two people sit at the table. For a spacious hall it is worth buying large-format furniture.

In an ordinary house or apartment, you can focus on the following furniture dimensions:

• Width in folded form - 30-35 centimeters;

• width in the opened form - 1.4-2.4 meters;

• length - 0.7-0.9 meters;

• height - 0.75 meters.

The close coincidence of the size of the tables-books allows most of them to use as a dining place, and for writing.

If desired, it is not difficult to buy compact tables of the most sophisticated design. They are presented in the collections of modern furniture factories, as well as are made by special order. The models, complemented by drawers, are ideal for dining areas. Shelves will provide additional storage space, and some manufacturers equip the tables, books, wheels, which makes it easy to move them to the right place.

Coffee tables-books are always made to order, their size is less than full-size, and all dimensions are selected individually.
