What is Engineering Scale

Engineering scale is a system of measuring and representing sizes, distances, or quantities in technical drawings, maps, and blueprints. It is used to accurately depict real-world objects and their proportions on a smaller or larger scale. Common engineering scales include 1:10, 1:20, 1:50, 1:100, and so on. The first number represents the unit of measurement in the real world, while the second number represents the same unit of measurement on the drawing or map.
