In this chapter, the problems associated with the use of hand tools are reviewed. The guidelines for designing hand tools are provided. Effects of tool and worker factors influencing human force/ torque exertion capability with human powered non-impact hand tools are also discussed to assist designers in selecting or designing fastener devices.
