A common result of getting this question wrong can be broken toilet seats, due to people actually ‘sqatting’ on top of Western toilet seat itself, which can result in breakages. The WuduMate East-West Hybrid toilet is a single piece, wash-down, hybrid toilet, providing a single appliance whic used as both a seated Western style toilet, as well as an Eastern style squat toilet. The rim of the WuduMate East-West Hybrid incorporates two foot positions (pedals), at a slightly lower lever than a Western toilet rim, which facilitates squatting when the seat is raised. The seat itelf is thicker than a normal toilet seat to take the seated height to a comfortable level, but which can be lift reveal the squat 'pedals’. The WuduMate East-West Hybrid therefore discourages users from standing on the toilet s reducing breakages and maintenance costs. The WuduMate East-West Hybrid requires an S Trap fitting not P trap, which makes replacement of an Eastern style relatively simple, but it is more difficult to do a direct replacement of a Western style toilet with S trap fitting.

The Cultural and Environmental Unsoundness of the Chinese Public Squatting-Type Toilet: a Case Study Toward a Sustainable Excreta Treatment System
Environ. Eng. Res. 2014 March,19(0), 0-0 Research Paper http://dx.doi.org/10.4491/eer.2014.19.0.0 pISSN 1226-1025 eISSN 2005-968X In Press, Uncorrected Proof The Cultural and Environmental Unsoundness of the Chinese Public Squatting-type Toilet: A Case Study toward a Sustainable Excreta Treatment System Jin-Soo Chang Molecular Biogeochemistry Laboratory, Biological & Genetic Resources Institute (BGRI), Hannam University (Jeonming), 505 Inno-Biz Park, 1646 Yuseong-daero, Yeseong-gu, Daejeon 305-811, Republic of Korea Abstract The inconvenient truth of sustainable public squat toilet culture varies among nationalities. According to the adequate environmental management in Yanbian Korean Autonomous Prefecture (YKAP), northern China, this culture may be comfortable to the people of China, yet uncomfortable to the non-Chinese. We conducted a series of field surveys and individual interviews (Chinese n = 1000 and non-Chinese (foreign visitors) n = 100) on several aspects of the public squat toilet: structural properties, waste disposal methods, important factors, and overall satisfaction level. The significant factors in response to the public squat toilets were cleanliness, odor, toilet paper, temperature, soap, other facilities, and presence of cubicles. These factors should be the policy priorities of local government. In addition, 66.2% of Chinese and 91% of foreign visitors desired type E toilets (two full-height partition walls per cubicle, with a door). The results illustrate the nature of a sustainable and aesthetic approach to the culturally and environmentally sound management of various types of public squat toilet in YKAP. The government needs to focus on the future-oriented and excreta treatment management of the sustainable toilet culture for the residents of, and visitors to, YKAP.

However, squat toilets are among the most common toilets in numerous public areas because of their advantages, including personal hygiene, easy cleaning, and health beneﬁts. This study attempted to determine optimal toilet design parameters and recruited 50 Taiwanese and 50 Southeast Asian women and collected span between feet (SBF) data for participants squatting in their most comfortable posture, and also surveyed maximum outer width (MOW) data of 28 public squat toilets in Taipei. Finally, we compared the squatting stability levels of 40 female participants (20 Taiwanese and 20 Southeast Asians) who squatted for 2 min at comfortable SBF and MOW-based SBF values. The results revealed that the minimum and maximum SBFs of Taiwanese were 14.52 cm and 18.40 cm, and that of Southeast Asians were 15.64 cm and 20.40 cm, respectively. No signiﬁcant difference was observed in the SBFs between the two groups was observed.

Sohail and Sue Cavill Introduction Although we have set international targets to achieve access to adequate and equitable sanitation and hygiene for all by 2030 (UN, 2015), how we defecate and clean ourselves afterwards is rarely discussed. Defecation is the discharge of faeces from the body (Oxford Dictionary, 2010).

Research on Toilet Re-Design Based on Ergonomics
The International Journal of Engineering and Science (IJES) || Volume || 7 || Issue || 4 Ver. II || Pages || PP 24-30 || 2018 || ISSN (e): 2319 – 1813 ISSN (p): 23-19 – 1805 Research On Toilet Re-Design Based On Ergonomics Yu, Sinan School of Urban Design, Wuhan University Corresponding Author: Yu, Sinan --------------------------------------------------------ABSTRACT----------------------------------------------------------- With the application of ergonomic principles, this essay analyzes the structural problems in the existing toilets that cause irrational phenomena in postures and methods of use. To follow the assessment principles of products, which are “convenience”, “comfort”, “reliability”, “value”, “safety”, “efficiency” and so on, the existing toilets are re-designed and a new design scheme is proposed. It is exhibited that in toilet design, the shape of the product will match with ergonomics perfectly only when the consideration is based on ergonomics. This means using psychology as the center, physiology as the radius, and the method that could build up a harmonious man-object (product) relationship, to maximize human potentials, to use human function comprehensively and evenly, to protect human health, and therefore to improve efficiency. Meanwhile, it also illustrates that a series of social and material factors, for example social development, technological improvement, the renewal of products, the quickened life pace and so on, call on people to focus more on the issue of humanized design, which is usually mentioned in

Towards More Culturally Inclusive Domestic Toilet Facilities in Australia
Frontiers of Architectural Research (2016) 5, 383–391 Available online at www.sciencedirect.com Frontiers of Architectural Research www.elsevier.com/locate/foar RESEARCH ARTICLE Towards more culturally inclusive domestic toilet facilities in Australia Zulkeplee Othmann, Laurie Buys School of Design, Queensland University of Technology, Brisbane, Queensland 4001, Australia Received 28 October 2015; received in revised form 28 June 2016; accepted 30 June 2016 KEYWORDS Abstract Toilets; The topics on toilets, defecation and perianal cleansing may be perceived as taboo subjects in Culturally inclusive; daily discussions but are markedly important from health and hygienical perspectives. In Australia; multicultural countries like Australia, no research attention has been given to domestic toilet Home; hygienical requirements from the perspective of the society's cultural traditions or religious Multicultural teachings. The Western sitting lavatories with toilet paper facilities are the most common toilet systems available in Australian homes, which may be contradictory to persons coming from non- Western backgrounds. Squat latrines used widely in many Asian countries are acknowledged to be more conducive for maintaining a healthy bowel system, but are unattractive to Westerners and also unsuitable for those with physical disabilities. Similarly, water is regarded as the most hygienical option for perianal cleansing in many cultures but is rarely used in Western cultures. This paper investigates the experiences of seven Muslim families living in Brisbane with respect to whether or not the Australian toilet systems in their homes meet their personal and familial requirements. This paper further explores whether modiﬁcations were made to their domestic toilets to meet these essential needs. Some design recommendations are presented, which are based on the extant literature on this topic as well as the ﬁndings from this study.

A Code of Practice for Public Toilets in Britain
A Code of Practice for Public Toilets in Britain Dr. Clara Greed [email protected] and [email protected] University of the West of England, Faculty of the Built Environment, School of Architecture and Planning, Bristol, United Kingdom Abstract The purpose of this paper is to discuss what might be ideal standards for toilet provision, drawing on research being undertaken on the importance of public toilets in creating accessible cities for everyone. Reference is made to British toilet standards and to other Western levels of provision, with comparisons and examples of good practice drawn from the international situation. At present, most public toilet standards are inadequate and there are some towns and cities without any public toilets. In particular, there are fewer toilets for women than for men, and few toilets for the disabled. Drawing on revisions being undertaken for the British Standards Institute which will provide the basis for revising the current UK standard, 'BS6465 Sanitary Installations' the paper explains the factors being taken into account in setting standards for toilet provision. Keywords Codes; standards; planning; accessibility; design 1 Introduction The purpose of this paper is to consider the factors that need to be taken into account in producing codes and guidelines for public toilet provision. The paper draws upon work being undertaken by the author and colleagues to revise British Standard BS 6465 Part 1 'Sanitary Installations' which sets out the standards for the levels and numbers of toilets to be provided in different types of buildings and locations (BS1, 1996). BS 6465 Part 2 provides more detailed standards for fixtures and fittings, dimensions within toilets but this is not the primary focus of this paper.
