Scale of an Models

Scales in Architectural Model Making are actually very simple. The scale of architectural models is a ratio.  For example, 1:1 scale (we would say it as "one to one") would be a life size model.Whereas, 1:10 scale ("one to ten" or "one tenth scale") would be one tenth of actual size. Likewise, 1:100 would be one hundredth of actual size, and so on.The larger the scale indicator number, the smaller the model, which means less detail can be shown.
