Scales 1”=1’ (every 1 inch of the drawing represents 1 foot in real space) ½”=1’ (every ½ inch of the drawing represents 1 foot in real space) ¼”=1’ (every ¼ inch of the drawing represents 1 foot in real space) There are many scales that can be used but these are the easiest and most common. The scale that is used depends on what is being drawn to scale, the level of accuracy and how much detail is needed.
