The height and weight scale, or Body Mass Index (BMI), can usually be found online, however, speaking a physician is the best way for information. This method however, isn't the most accurate in terms of determining health.

The age is not nearly as important as the height of a person. The taller a person is, the more weight they need to balance that out. The best way to find out if you are a healthy weight is to ask your doctor. They can best determine the right weight for your height and body type.

Does a scale model testing for a bridge have a different proportion for weight than size like a 1 inch to 1 foot size model?

My thought is that a scale model is actually reducing in 3 dimensions...hieghtxwidthxlength. When you reduce an object by 1/12 its original dimensions, its weight will be reduced by much more than 1/12. It should be 1/12 of 1/12 of 1/12. To make this a little easier...If we had a model that was only reducing the scale by 1/2 of the height, the weight adjustment would be 1/2. If we made a model that was one half the height and width, we should reduce the weight by 1/4. If we made a model that was 1/2 height, width, length, it stands to reason that the weight should be adjusted to 1/8. 1"=1' scale model should have the weight scale of 1/12x12x12 or 1/1728 To model an adult of 200lbs on a bridge of 1"=1' scale would result in a weight of 1.85oz.
