To reproduce a scale drawing so that 1 box equals 10 feet instead of the original scale of 1 box equals 5 feet, you'll need to adjust the dimensions accordingly.
Original Scale:
- 1 box = 5 feet
New Scale:
- 1 box = 10 feet
This means that each dimension in the original drawing should be divided by 2 (since 10 feet is double 5 feet) to maintain the proportionality when transitioning to the new scale.
If, for example, the original drawing had a dimension of 20 feet (which would cover 4 boxes in the original scale), it would now be represented as follows:
- Original: 4 boxes (20 feet)
- New: 2 boxes (10 feet)
To perform the scaling:
- Measure the size of all existing dimensions in the original drawing in boxes.
- Divide all box measurements by 2 to convert to the new scale.
If you have specific dimensions, please provide them, and I can help you further with the calculations! If you need a visual representation or a specific example, it would be easier to demonstrate with drawing software or a printed grid.
