Engineering drawing: class5

scale: scale is defined as the ratio of the linear

dimension of the object as represented in
drawing to the actual dimension of the same.
Types of the scale:
1.Enlarging scale.
2.Full scale.
3.Reducing scale.
Reducing factor:
it is the ration of dimension of drawing figure
to the dimension fo actual figure.

For enlarging scale reducin factor (RF) is >1.
eg: 5:1
For full scale reducin factor (RF) is =1.
Eg: 1:1
For reducing scale reducin factor (RF) is <1.
Eg: 1:5
