This document classifies and identifies various hand tools used in construction. It divides the tools into three categories: measuring tools, marking and lining tools, and testing tools. The measuring tools section identifies common tools like the push-pull rule, ruler, meter stick, try square, and caliper. The marking and lining tools section lists the pencil, marking gauge, chalk line, divider, and compass. The final section on testing tools mentions the try square, steel square, spirit level, and plumb bob.
