CAD drawing scale

Question: When using CAD to draw a 30-meter-tall tower on A1 paper, what should be the drawing scale?

A1=841X594mm, it depends on how much you want to put in it according to your diagram. The most commonly used ratios are 1:100, 1:125, and 1:200

CAD is drawn at a 1:1 scale, and identical trays in the middle can be represented using simplified drawing methods

It hasn’t been finished yet; the scale can be selected when generating the image.

First, draw the diagram at a 1:1 scale in CAD, then copy a 1:1 standard drawing frame and see by how much it needs to be enlarged to cover the diagram; use that scale thereafter. Of course, the commonly used scale of 1:100 is usually chosen; 1:50 ; 1:25 and so on

First, draw it at a 1:1 scale; after that, use scaling to fit the image onto an A1 sheet of paper, which is quite suitable

I won’t go into detail on how to operate CAD; methods such as scaling the drawing frame and scaling the drawing itself can be used, or you can set the scale in the layout and produce the output there. 30m cannot be placed on the A1 format sheet. After drawing, the length of the tower with repeated dimensions should be shortened by using a broken line; a schematic representation of the dimensions is sufficient. Otherwise, the drawings won’t look good either.
