A drawing marked NTS indicates that it is

  • A.at the natural true scale of one to one
  • B.drawn at the nearest standard scale available
  • C.to be scaled only in the horizontal direction
  • D.not to scale, so no dimension may be measured from it

Answer: D

Correct answer: not to scale, so no dimension may be measured from it

NTS warns that the geometry on the sheet does not correspond to the object in any consistent proportion, so nothing may be scaled from it and every dimension needed must be written on. It is used for diagrammatic and schematic drawings, and for details deliberately distorted to show a thin feature clearly.
