Use of measuring skills should include

• proper implementation of tolerances
• conversion between units
• conversion between systems of measurement
• use of different types of scale (e.g., metric, SAE International, architecture)
• electronic measuring tools.

Process/Skill Questions:

• How does the implementation of tolerances affect interchangeable parts in manufacturing?
• What are examples of catastrophes that could happen when two systems of measurement are used in a project?
• Which scales are used predominantly in which professions?
