A scale ruler is a tool for measuring lengths and transferring measurements at a fixed ratio of length; two common examples are an architect's scale and engineer's scale.In scientific and engineering terminology, a device to measure linear distance and create proportional linear measurements is called a scale.

The first reading is from the scale on pointer B where it crosses the topmost spiral of the helical scale on the cylinder. The second reading is from the scale at the top circumference of cylinder C where it crosses the left edge of pointer B. The sum of the readings provides the mantissa of the log of the value.

For example, the range 1 to 10 is a single decade, and the range from 10 to 100 is another decade. Thus, single-decade scales (named C and D) range from 1 to 10 across the entire length of the slide rule, while double-decade scales (named A and B) range from 1 to 100 over the length of the slide rule.

A typical English sector, probably from the early 19th century, made of ivory with a brass hinge. This side has scales for lines of lines (L), secants (S), chords (C), and polygons (POL), along with a scale of 10ths of inches on the outer edges forming a straight 12-inch rule when the sector is fully opened, and a scale of 100ths of a foot marked along the side (only barely visible in this ...
