Blog on Scale Ratio, by Nicholas Seepersad.

 SCALE RATIO 

What is scale ratio ? 

Scale ratio of a model represents the proportional ratio of a linear dimension of the same original model, to put it simply it's the ratio of the corresponding dimensions off the same feature of the original.

THINK ON IT ... 



Scale drawings can be used in various Fields but the main importance of it is that it can be used to plan or give a visual representation of a plan before it is executed, take blueprints for example these are used to give a layout of an infrastructure on a smaller scale, very convenient. 

SOME EXAMPLES OF FIELDS THAT USE SCALE DRAWINGS INCLUDES : 

The construction industry : most infrastructures use scale drawing models for their construction, this Is how they are able to get a visual representation of how the infrastructures are to look and built.

Engineering : engineers use scale drawings to draw the exact object on a much smaller scale, this is used by architects and builders to create a specific object or infrastructure.

Architecturing : most if not all architectures use blueprints which is basically a scale drawing, they use this to get a better understanding of the layout of a building or infrastructure and how it is to be built.

Movie making : productionists use props or small-scale models to plan out and design, the purpose of this is to give a visual representation on how the movie or television show made.

CREATE IT .

I used a model of a mug as an example to prove how scale ratio is used in real world events .

    A BLOG ON SCALE RATIO DEFINE IT !! What is scale ratio ? Scale ratio is defined as the ratio of the length of any object on a mode...
