ARCHITECTURAL SCALE
An architectural scale ruler is not used in the
same way as other types of rulers. Employ an
architectural scale ruler as a measuring tool,
much like a tape measure, rather than as a
straightedge. It can basically be described as a
"multi-ruler" with several measurement scales
ranging from 1/16" = 1' to 3" = 1', either from left
to right or vice versa.
C. METRIC SCALE
The metric system is a system of measurement
used through much of the world and in scientific
and technical applications. The "meter" is the
base unit for length measurement in the metric
system. One tenth of a meter is a decimeter,
one hundredth of a meter is a centimeter and
one thousandth of a meter is a millimeter.
1m = 10 dm = 100cm = 1000mm
