Answer: D. All the above




52.A civil engineer working on a bridge design would probably rely on his _ scale for checking printed drawings.
A. Engineer’s
B. Metric
C. Architect’s
D. None of the above

Answer: A. Engineer’s
Engineer’s Scale- The relation between the dimension on the drawing and the actual dimension of the object is mentioned numerically (like 10 mm = 15 m). • Graphical Scale: Scale is drawn on the drawing itself.

Metric Scale- are usually based on ratios. A ratio is the relationship of one measurement to another. For example, metric plot plans are often drafted in ratios of 1:100. This scale is very close to the scale 1/8" = 1'-0" (1:96).

Architect’s Scale- such as 1/4˝ = 1´-0˝ (1/48 size) or 1/8˝ = 1´-0˝ (1/96 size), are used for structures and buildings. They are used to measure interior and exterior dimensions such as rooms, walls, doors, windows, and fire protection system details. Other scale tools include flat scales and rolling scales.

None of the above

A. ¼” = 1’ – 0”
B. 1/8” = 1’ =0”
C. 1” = 100’
D. ¾”= 1’ 0”

Answer: C.1” = 100’
¼” = 1’ – 0”
1/8” = 1’ =0”
1” = 100’
¾”= 1’ 0”

59.The primary unit of measurement for engineering drawings and design in the mechanical industries is the:
A. millimeter
B. centimeter
C. meter
D. kilometer

Answer: A. millimeter


60.These units are based on inch-foot and yard measurements:
A. international customary units
B. U.S. metric units
C. U.S. customary units
D. ISO international units

Answer: C. U.S. customary units
international customary units- the seven base units were chosen for historical reasons, and were, by convention, regarded as dimensionally independent: the metre, the kilogram, the second, the ampere, the kelvin, the mole, and the candela.

U.S. metric units- the metric system is a system of measurement that uses the meter, liter, and gram as base units of length (distance), capacity (volume), and weight (mass) respectively.

U.S. customary units-measure length and distances in the customary system are inches, feet, yards, and miles.

ISO international units- a coherent system of units of measurement starting with seven base units, which are the second (symbol s, the unit of time), metre (m, length), kilogram (kg, mass), ampere (A, electric current), kelvin (K, thermodynamic temperature), mole (mol, amount of substance), and candela (cd, luminous intensity)
