Architects and engineers commonly use scales like this one.
Plans drawn at 3/4" scale means that 3/4" on the paper equals 1' in real life. So, on the ruler, every 3/4" is marked incrementally, indicating the number of feet the measurement is.
I just came here to be snooty and tell you architects dont use rulers, we use scales ;P

I use an architects ruler like this. It lets me "scale" my drawings and work out dimensions. But I don't go full blown "drafting"... There are youtube videos on how to use them.
