Suggested scale for building site is ____
1┬аcm=10┬аm or more
1┬аcm=10┬аm or less
1┬аcm=10┬аkm or more
1┬аcm=100┬аm or less
1┬аcm=10┬аm or less
In architectural and engineering drawing, the scale used for building site plans must be sufficiently large to display detailed information like building footprints, boundary lines, and utility layouts. The recommended standard scale for building site plans is typically 1:1000 or larger, which corresponds to 1┬аcm=10┬аm or a finer resolution (i.e., more detail).

RF=Actual┬аGround┬аDistanceDrawing┬аDistanceтАЛ тАФ Representative Fraction defining the scale ratio
The choice of scale in engineering drawings is governed by the need for clarity and accuracy. A scale of 1:1000 (1┬аcm=10┬аm) is considered a 'large scale' relative to town planning maps (1:5000 or smaller), as it provides the necessary resolution for construction-related spatial planning without cluttering the drawing with redundant detail.
Large-scale maps are used for site planning to ensure all structural boundaries are distinct.
A smaller ratio in the denominator (e.g., 1000 vs 5000) results in a larger scale.
Building site plans usually range from 1:200 to 1:1000.
High level of geometric detail for construction
Precise measurement of site boundaries and setbacks
Limited coverage area per sheet compared to small-scale maps
Requires more paper area to represent the same extent of land
Layout of building foundations
Demarcation of property boundaries
Planning of drainage and service line connections
The term '1 cm = 10 m or less' indicates that for every centimeter on paper, the ground distance should be 10 meters or a value smaller than 10 meters (like 5 meters or 2 meters) to increase scale/detail.
A scale of 1 cm = 100 m represents a much smaller scale, which is insufficient for detailed building site planning.
B is correct тАФ A scale of 1┬аcm=10┬аm or smaller (more detailed) is the standard for site plans to ensure the accuracy required for construction.
Remember: The larger the denominator in the RF (1:x), the smaller the scale. For detailed site works, always look for the smallest possible denominator values.
