@learnaboutconstruction: Engineering Scale (Explained Simply): An engineering scale lets you read measurements on civil and site drawings where 1 unit on paper represents multiple units in real life—like 1” = 10’ or 1” = 50’. If you don’t know how to use it, your takeoffs, layouts, and quantities will be off before you even start. This is one of those basic tools every engineer, estimator, and field professional needs to understand early. #architect #engineeringstudent #engineers #construction #estimator

Ancient here. Typically “architectural scales” have inch markings for reading plans like you are. But “engineering scales” were in scaled in tenths for mechanical drawings. So I think you have an architectural scale.

My dad owned a construction company. I never knew what those were for but I’d always throw them at my sisters because they made a nice sound as they him them then clanged on the floor. Now I know why he always go so bad when I’d mess them up lol.
