Measuring tools refer to tools that measure distances, angles, weights, and other quantitative data. Common measuring tools include rulers, tape measures, levels, protractors, compasses, micrometers, squares, and inclinometers. Measuring tools are important for tasks that require precise dimensions, such as construction, engineering, and technical drawing. They allow people to quantify attributes like height, temperature, volume, and distances.

2. WHAT IS TOOL?
A TOOL IS AN OBJECT USED TO PERFORM WORKS. THE TOOLS BEING
REFERRED TO HAND TOOLS AND POWER TOOLS ARE A COMMON PART
OF OUR EVERYDAY LIVES AND ARE PRESENT IN NEARLY EVERY INDUSTRY.
THESE TOOLS HELP US TO EASILY PERFORM TASKS THAT OTHERWISE
COULD BE DIFFICULT OR IMPOSSIBLE

3. A measuring tool is anything used to take a
count of quantitative data, such as weight, length,
time or temperature. Rulers and scales are two
common types of measuring tools.
Measuring tools can be very precise, but low
quality ones can lead to faulty measurements
Measuring tools refer to tools that measure things
like distances and angles, and they include tape
measures, steel rules, micrometers, spirit levels, steel
squares

4. Measurement tools have various types; major product
include Vernier caliper, micrometers, dial gauges, gauges of
varied types, bubble levels protractors. Measuring tools is
important to measure any types of tools.
The ability to use measuring tools, rulers, termometers,
and to estimate with these tools are necessary skills that
us to quantify the world around us. They can tell us how tall
are, how hot we are, how much we drink, how heavy we are
how far it is from here to there.

5. Let’s dive into Measuring Tools
Measuring Tools
Measuring is the process of making dimensions required to the needed job before
any other process will be applied.
Here is some of important measuring tools we must know:

6. A ruler is a tool used to measure distances and technical drawning, as well as in the engineering and
construction sectors. In the commercial world, they’re generally employed. Both metric and customary units are
used to measure a ruler.
RULER

7. A level is a form of measuring instrument that’s used to show the horizontal plane. The level is
an optical instrument that displays measured findings by using air bubbles in a liquid media. The
tube is sealed and attached horizontally to a smooth-bottomed block of wood.

8. Protractor are half-circle-shaped measuring devices often constructed of
plastic or glass. These are commonly marked with degrees and are used to
measure angles. More mathematically oriented protractors that measure in
radians can be found on occasion.
PROTRACTOR

9. COMPASS
A compass is a very useful measuring tool that may be used for a variety of tasks such as
algebra, drafting, navigation, and other things. It is extensively utilized in the shipbuilding and
carpentry processes.

10. These types of measuring tools look like a caliper, but instead of
sliding, it screws down. The spindle is extremely accurate, and the
measurement object is put between the spindle and the anvil. They are
sometimes known as screw gauges in addition to the world
micrometer.
MICROMETER

11. A square is a type of measuring tool that is used to measure and refer to a
90 degrees angle, whereas a miter square is used to measure and refer to a 45
degrees angle. Combination squares, drywall squares, framing squares, and
speed squares are just a few of the special types of these tools.

12. If you need to determine a specific inclination, an inclinometer is a
must-have tool. These are specifically developed to measure a joint’s
range of motion as well as the grade’s stability.
