Question 1

The triangular engineers scale is available in a ______ model and _____ model.

Accepted Answer

6" and 12"

Question 2

The most commonly used scales on the engineers scale is?
A) 30, 40, 60
B) 5, 10, 20
C) 10, 20, 30
D) 10, 40, 60

Accepted Answer

The commonly used scales on the engineers scale are 10, 20, and 30. This is because these scales allow for easy conversion between feet and inches, as well as between larger measurements such as yards and miles. The other choices listed are not as commonly used on an engineers scale.

Question 3

The engineers triangular scale has how many scales?
A) 3
B) 4
C) 5
D) 6

Accepted Answer

An engineer's triangular scale typically has six scales, with each edge of the triangle featuring two different scales, allowing for versatile measurements and scaling in technical drawing and engineering.

Question 4

The most common type is the 12-inch, triangular scale rule.

Accepted Answer

The 12-inch, triangular scale rule is indeed the most common type of scale rule, used for measurements in architecture, engineering, and design.

Question 5

The Architiects use the engineer's scale to draw ______ plans.

Accepted Answer

The answer of The Architiects use the engineer's scale to...

Question 6

The larger the scale numer, the _______ the drawing will be.

Accepted Answer

The answer of The larger the scale numer, the _______...

Question 7

On the engineers scale each inch is divided into _____ equal parts.

Accepted Answer

The answer of On the engineers scale each inch is...

Question 8

The purpose of the engineer's scale rule is to enlarge the size of the drawing plan.

Accepted Answer

The purpose of the engineer's scale rule is to accurately measure and represent distances on a scaled drawing or plan. It does not enlarge the size of the drawing plan.

Question 9

The most used scale by architiects and engineers is?
A) 10
B) 20
C) 30
D) 40

Accepted Answer

The 1:10 scale is commonly used by architects and engineers for detailed drawings and plans, as it allows for precise measurements and easy conversion from real-world dimensions.

Question 10

The engineers scale is divided into units of 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60 nd 70.

Accepted Answer

The engineer's scale is typically divided into units that represent fractions of an inch per foot (e.g., 1 inch = 10 feet, 1 inch = 20 feet, etc.), not into units of 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, and 70 directly.
