5-9 Scale Models and Scale Drawings

This HO gauge model train is a scale model of a historic train. A scale model is a proportional model of a three-dimensional object. Its dimensions are related to the dimensions of the actual object by a ratio called the scale factor. The scale factor of an HO

gauge model train is . 1

87

This means that each dimension of the model is of the corresponding dimension of the actual train.

5-9 Scale Models and Scale Drawings

A scale is the ratio between two sets of measurements. Scales can use the same units or different units. The photograph shows a scale drawing of the model train.

A scale drawing is a proportional drawing of an object. Both scale drawings and scale models can be smaller or larger than the objects they represent.

Scale Interpretation

1:20 1 unit on the drawing is 20 units.

1 cm:1 m 1 cm on the drawing is 1 m.

A scale factor is always the ratio of the model’s dimensions to the actual object’s dimensions.

Caution!

A. The length of an object on a scale drawing is 2 cm, and its actual length is 8 m. The scale is 1 cm: __ m. What is the scale?
