An L-square, also known as a drafting square, is a drafting tool used primarily in architectural and technical drawing. It consists of two arms, typically made of transparent or translucent plastic or acrylic, joined together at a 90-degree angle to form an "L" shape. One arm is longer than the other, usually with measurements marked along its edge, while the shorter arm serves as a handle for stability and control.

L-squares are designed to provide drafters with precise angles, primarily 90-degree and 45-degree angles, essential for drawing straight lines and perpendicular lines accurately. They are versatile tools used for various drafting tasks, including creating floor plans, technical diagrams, and engineering drawings.

The longer arm of the L-square is often used to align with the edge of the drawing board or paper, while the shorter arm is held by the drafter to guide the drawing instrument, such as a pencil or pen, along the edge of the square to create straight lines or angles.

Overall, L-squares are essential tools for drafters, offering precision, versatility, and ease of use in creating accurate and detailed drawings for architectural, engineering, and other technical applications.
