1 cm on the scale drawing represents 12∙5 cm in real life. The drawn length multiplied by 12∙5 gives the real length. The scale drawing enlarges the size of the machine component by scale ...
A drawing at a scale of 1:10 means that the object is 10 times smaller than in real life scale, 1:1. You could also say, 1 unit in the drawing is equal to 10 units in real life. As the numbers in the scale get bigger, i.e. 1:50 – 1:200, the elements in the drawing actually get smaller.
For construction projects that are too large to be drawn full size on a sheet of paper, everything must be drawn proportionately smaller than it really is. True Smaller objects and drawings that must show more detail are drawn to a larger scale.
A drawing that is the actual size of the object is drawn at full size (full scale). drawing may be produced at a smaller scale (reduction) than the original. It may also be drawn at a larger scale, which is an enlargement of the object. A scale is a tool used to make technical drawings at different sizes.
The scale of a drawing is usually stated as a ratio. For example, 1 \, cm \, \text{:} \, 5 \, m. You would read this as “ 1 centimeter to 5 meters” which means that every 1 centimeter on the diagram represents 5 meters in real life.
What is scale and proportion? Scale and proportion in art are both concerned with size. Scale refers to the size of an object (a whole) in relationship to another object (another whole). In art the size relationship between an object and the human body is significant.
What is a Scale? Well let’s see what it is..... You can clearly see that a wristwatch is made up of small gears and while drawing one needs to enlarge them depending on their actual sizes. The radius of these gears are very small ( 1 mm to 5 mm). And here we need a scale (Enlarging) to magnify the dimensions so that it can be drawn easily. 1.
