A house model may choose 1 / 4 inch = 1 foot as the maximum scale, so that a 96 foot building will occupy 2 feet of desktop space or work area.
對于那些幾百英尺的大型建筑，使用1/8英寸=1英尺的比例會更有效。
For large buildings with hundreds of feet, it's more effective to use a ratio of 1 / 8 inch = 1 foot.
大型場地通常使用1英寸=50英尺、100英尺或200英尺的比例，這樣可以使沙盤模型易處理。
Large sites usually use a scale of 1 inch = 50 feet, 100 feet, or 200 feet, which makes the sand table model easy to handle.
概要模型開始的時候會使用很小的比例如1/32英寸、1/16英寸或1/8英寸=1英尺，會集中考慮綜合性的關(guān)系；隨著設(shè)計的進一步深入，可以增加沙盤模型的比例來研究細節(jié)性的問題。
At the beginning of the summary model, a small scale will be used, such as 1 / 32 inch, 1 / 16 inch or 1 / 8 inch = 1 foot, and the comprehensive relationship will be considered. With the further development of the design, the proportion of sand table model can be increased to study the details.
背景模型會使用稍小的比例，比如1英寸=10英尺或1/6英寸=1英尺。
The background model uses a smaller scale, such as 1 inch = 10 feet or 1 / 6 inch = 1 foot.
如果把展示模型建造大得可以進行細部處理，這樣得展示模型通常更為直觀。對于房屋來說，比例可以選擇1/4英寸=1英尺或更大一些，對于大型建筑物，選擇1/8英寸=1英尺的比例會更合適。
If the display model is built to be large enough for detail processing, the display model is usually more intuitive. For houses, the scale can be 1 / 4 inch = 1 foot or more, and for large buildings, 1 / 8 inch = 1 foot is more appropriate.
建筑模型的細部必須根據(jù)比例進行。這種考慮使得模擬尺寸會很難，比如在1/2英寸、1英寸=1英尺或更小的比例下模擬2或3英寸的實際尺寸。
The details of the building model must be scaled. This consideration makes it difficult to simulate the actual size, such as 2 or 3 inches at a scale of 1 / 2 inch, 1 inch = 1 foot or less.
對于像窗子豎框、屋頂飾帶和連接的研究，需要使用較大而定比例，如1/2或1英寸=1英尺。
For studies such as window mullions, roof fringes, and connections, a larger scale is needed, such as 1 / 2 or 1 inch = 1 foot.
對于更小的比例，應(yīng)該暗含精細的細部。
For smaller scales, fine details should be implied.
