1 8 Scale Drawing Full Size Would Be

I then cut foam filler blocks to keep the need for body filler at a minimum.The type of architect’s scale we’re going to look at is used to make measurements on a drawing that is dimensioned in feet and inches, like architectural drawings. I had cut-a-way drawings of the nacelle stations I cut out each of the cross sections and then glued them at the appropriate spot. I have been working on building a plug for the engine nacelles. In the video, Bob and Sparky break down the basics of using an architect’s scale.1 Algebraic expression 2 Algebraic expression 3 Simple equation 4 Linear inequality 5 Graph of linear inequality 6 Plane shapes 7 Scale drawing 8 Estimation.RE: Scratch Build - 1/8 Scale, C-2A Greyhound. This may be because drawing the item at full size would be unmanageable, or would not easily fit on a single sheet of paper (such as a building), or alternatively because items need to be drawn larger than full size to adequately represent all the detail that needs to be Architect’s scales are used on scale drawings. Scale drawings are used to illustrate items that it is not useful or convenient to draw at their actual size.

1/2' 1 Read as 1/2 inch (on the drawing) equals 1 foot (on the actual component or system). For example, if a component part measures 6/8 inch on the drawing, the actual component measures 2 feet. To get an exact measurement we would need to do some calculations.Typical Bollard Detail Scale: 3/4 1-0 Download free, high-quality CAD Drawings, blocks and details of Bollards Skip to main content × Warning: Internet.3/8' 1 Read as 3/8 inch (on the drawing) equals 1 foot (on the actual component or system). If you measured the the drawing of the cabinets with a regular ruler, you would see that they would be a little longer than 3 inches wide. The cabinets on the drawing are 12 feet 8 inches wide. In this case, a quarter inch on the drawing represents one foot in real life.

On one side of this zero is where you measure the feet, and on the other side is where the inches come from.One of the keys to understanding a scale like this is to see that the part where you get the inches (the end with the small marks) is really just an oridinary 12 inch long ruler that has been shrunk down to the scale you are using. On an architects scale, there are different marks for the foot and the inch parts of the measurement. Architects scales are designed to work with scaled drawings. When we use a scale like this, we don’t need to do any calculations. Set the print scale to 1:1 and set your viewport scale to 1/8' 1'-0' Welcome back to the wonderful world of AutoCADHere is an architect’s scale. Your viewport is 11x17 so you want that to print 1:1 to match the size of your paper.

Now remember that I said that the inch part of the ruler is just an ordinary 12 inch long ruler that has been shrunk down o the scale you are using? Well with this scale it is easy to see that. You see that this scale is labeled “one quarter.” This means that you use this scale on drawings that are drawn to a scale of one quarter inch equals a foot — like our cabinet drawing.Let’s look at the inch part of the scale first. 06) First, we want to be sure we are using the right scale.

Notice that this scale is at the other end of the ruler. Let’s look at a 1/8 of an inch equals a foot. 10) Let’s look a different scale. Each mark represents one inch. Let’s see…one two three four five six seven eight nine ten eleven twelve.

Do you see that each mark on this scale represents two inches instead of just one? Good! that’s the hardest part of using this kind of scale — figuring out what each mark on the inch part represents.Now let’s look at one more scale. One two three four five six. Well this scale is tinier than the last one, and it doesn’t seem to have as many marks. Last time we said that each mark represented one inch. Lets take a close look at the 12 inch ruler here and see what each mark means. 12) Now remember that we said that the inch part of an architects scale is just a 12 inch long ruler that has been shrunk down to the scale you are using.

We’ll remember that this part of the ruler represents a 12 inch ruler that has been shrunk down. And we find that here the inches are on the left and feet are on the right. 15) First we look for the zero.

I think you understand the inch part of these scales, let’s move to the easy part. That makes this one inch, and the smallest mark is a half inch. And half of that is three inches. Since we know this is a 12 inch ruler shrunk down, we know that half way is six inches. Lets do this a faster way.

Now let’s flip that foot over and count….one two three four. Well look at the inch part of the ruler to see how big a foot would be at this scale…. Now remember that 12 inches equals one foot. Now remember how we said that the inch part of the architects scale is a 12 inch ruler shrunk down? I thought you did.

When we measure with an architects scale, we will first measure the number of feet, then slide the ruler over and measure the inches. You can just ignore the extra marks coming from the other end of the ruler.So let’s dive in and take some measurements. See how this scale is counting in the other direction? ,40,41,42,43,44. You just read them from different ends. On this ruler, the 1/8 inch equals a foot scale is on the same part of the rule as the 1/4 inch equals a foot. Those marks are counting whole feet from the other end of the scale.

Pause the video and take your time on this one. We’ll try one at 1/8 inch equals a foot. The reading is 2′-11″ did you get that? Good! lets try a harder one. Hit the pause button and think about it….

Ok…pause the video… The correct reading is one foot, one inch. If you get it you’ll be ready for that test tomorrow. The numbers 20 and 22 are from the other side of the ruler, just ignore them.We’ll do one more. See, 1,2,3,4,5 feet, and each inch mark counts as two inches. If not, lets have a look at what marks to count.
