USING AN ARCHITECT'S SCALE
An architect's scale is a specialized ruler designed to facilitate the drafting and measuring of architectural drawings, such as floor plans and Multi-view orthographic projections.
Because the scale of such drawings are often smaller than life-size, an architect's scale features multiple units of length and proportional length increments.
For accuracy and longevity, the material used should be dimensionally stable and durable. Scales were traditionally made of wood, but today they are usually made of rigid plastic or aluminum. Architect's scales may be flat, with 4 scales, or have asymmetric 3-lobed cross-section, with 6 or 12 scales.
