The schematic is a line diagram, not necessarily to scale, that describes interconnection of components in a system. The main features of a schematic drawing show: A two dimensional layout with divisions that show distribution of the system between building levels, or an isometric-style layout that shows distribution of systems across ...

Scale is a nuanced subject in the use of engineering drawings.
Example: A yardarm is 6 inches long in 3/16" scale. Find its length in 1/8" scale. F = .67 (from table) D2 = 6" × .67 = 4.02 = 4" It is easier to make measurements in the metric system and then multiply them by the scale conversion factor. Scales are expressed in fractional inches, but fractions themselves are harder to work with than metric ...
