  2. 3D modeling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/3D_modeling

    LOD is a measure of the level of detail and accuracy included in a 3D model. The LOD levels range from 100 to 500, with LOD 100 representing a conceptual model that shows the basic massing and location of objects, and LOD 500 representing an extremely detailed model that includes information about every aspect of the building, including MEP ...

  3. Length measurement - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Length_measurement

    Length measurement, distance measurement, or range measurement (ranging) all refer to the many ways in which length, distance, or range can be measured. The most commonly used approaches are the rulers, followed by transit-time methods and the interferometer methods based upon the speed of light .

  4. Calipers - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calipers

    Inside small jaws: used to measure the internal diameter of an object (like a hollow cylinder or pipe). Depth probe, or depth rod: used to measure depths of an object (like a small beaker) or a hole. Main scale (metric): marked every millimeter and helps to measure length correct up to 1 mm. Main scale (imperial): marked in inches and fractions.

  5. Digital sculpting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital_sculpting

    In many mesh-based programs, the mesh can be edited at different levels of detail, and the changes at one level will propagate to higher and lower levels of model detail. A limitation of mesh-based sculpting is the fixed topology of the mesh; the specific arrangement of the polygons can limit the ways in which detail can be added or manipulated.

  6. Measurement - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Measurement

    Measurement is the quantification of attributes of an object or event, which can be used to compare with other objects or events. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] In other words, measurement is a process of determining how large or small a physical quantity is as compared to a basic reference quantity of the same kind. [ 3 ]

  7. Three-dimensional space - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Three-dimensional_space

    While this space remains the most compelling and useful way to model the world as it is experienced, [4] it is only one example of a 3-manifold. In this classical example, when the three values refer to measurements in different directions (coordinates), any three directions can be chosen, provided that these directions do not lie in the same ...

  8. Weighing scale - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Weighing_scale

    A mechanical scale or balance is used to describe a weighing device that is used to measure the mass, force exertion, tension, and resistance of an object without the need of a power supply. Types of mechanical scales include decimal balances , spring scales , hanging scales, triple beam balances , and force gauges .

  9. List of measuring instruments - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_measuring_instruments

    Established standard objects and events are used as units, and the process of measurement gives a number relating the item under study and the referenced unit of measurement. Measuring instruments, and formal test methods which define the instrument's use, are the means by which these relations of numbers are obtained.
