scaling and dimensioning Flashcards
The scale used on a blueprint will be written below the drawing or shown in the ?
title block
A scale of one inch equals fifty feet is typically used in a(n) ? scale drawing.
civil engineers
The floor plan of a substation control house would normally be drawn using a(n) ? scale.
architects
The best way to get the true dimensions required when building a substation is to scale up from the blueprint.
false
A digital ? allows the worker to set any scale needed when used to take readings off a blueprint.
curvimeter
The type of line that always stops short of the drawing and does not touch it is the ? line. They are drawn at 90° from the surface being measured.
extension
The ends of a(n) ? line may be indicated with an arrowhead, a slash, or dot.
dimension
To define the distance a structure is from a known reference point, ? dimensions are used.
location
A line that is used to transfer a point out or get it away from the drawing where it can be dimensioned is a(n) ? line.
extension
If a dimension line is too small to write a dimension on it, the dimension is written away from the drawing and a(n) ? line is used from the dimension to the drawing to which it applies.
