LO 1 - Select measuring instruments
What’s In
Last lesson, you have learned about on how to maintain hand tools, drawing
instruments, equipment and paraphernalia. You have done also the different tasks
given for you. This time you will be familiarized with the different and proper selection
of measuring instruments best suited for your works or jobs.
What’s New
2. Triangles are used for drawing vertical and oblique lines. They are
usually made of celluloid or plastic and come in various sizes. The most
commonly used triangles are the 45 and the 30x 60. Illustrations
below show the proper use of drawing lines and measuring angles
using the T-square and triangle.

3. Ruler is the most popular type of measuring tool. It is usually 6 or 12
inches in length. It is needed for measuring sizes and distances.
TRIANGULAR SCALE
PROTRACTOR

Figure below can be measured and drawn using a protractor.
7. Compass is used to draw circles, arcs, radii, and parts of many symbols.
COMPASS

8. Divider is similar to the compass in construction. As the name implies,
divider is used for dividing distances into a number of equal parts by the trial-
and-error method.
DIVIDERS
Tools will last longer when properly kept and maintained. A good worker
or draftsman keeps and takes care of these tools. The following are some
pointers:
