Abstract
This paper deals with step length, swing period and walking speed in manual load carrying under the condition of hanging with one hand and putting on shoulder. The step length, swing period and walking speed of the eight different manual load carrying under the condition of hanging wiht one hand were calculated on six healthy male students. And, the step length, swing period and walking speed of the seven different manual load carrying under the condition of putting on shoulder were calculated on five healthy male students. From these calculations, the step length has been found to be correlated closely with the weight of carrying load. The walking speed is also correlated closely with the weight of carrying load. The regressive equations of these correlations are given in this paper.
