Scales and Geometrical Constructions in Technical Drawing, Schemes and Mind Maps of Engineering Drawing and Graphics

A basic introduction to scales in technical drawing, covering concepts like reducing and enlarging scales, representative fractions, and types of scales. It also delves into diagonal scales, both decimal and fraction-based, used for precise measurements. The document concludes with a practical example of a geometrical construction problem, demonstrating the application of scales in technical drawing.

1. SCALES

a. Reducing Scales

  • (^) For objects drawn smaller than their actual size b. Enlarging Scales
  • (^) For objects drawn larger than their actual size

SCALES

2. Representative Fraction (R.F.) - (^) The ratio of the length of the drawing to the actual length of the object represented - (^) Represented in the form of X : Y - (^) X is the unit on the drawing whereas Y is the representation on the actual object. - (^) A scale of 1:2 means 1 unit of length on the drawing representing 2 units of length of the object. - A scale of 2:1 means 2 units of length on the drawing representing 1 unit of length of the object.
