A scale drawing is a representation of an object or space at a reduced or enlarged scale, where each dimension of the drawing is proportional to the corresponding dimension of the real object or space. It is commonly used in architecture, engineering, and other technical fields to plan and design structures and objects accurately before they are built in real life. In a scale drawing, a measurement on the drawing can be converted to its actual size by using a scale factor.
