What does a metric scale of 1:125 represent?
I have a drawing that I need to take measurments from, and the drawing scale is 1:125. Does that mean 1 drawing unit (perhaps mm) is equal to 1.25m? There are no dimensions on the drawing that I can use as a reference to set the scale on my plan wheel. It is for estimating purposes, so it has to be correct!
