Specifically, when the measuring tool 100 is used for measurement, the scale on the indium steel ruler 40 is used to mark the height of the measured building. When used at night, the lighting strip 30 can be turned on. The lighting strip 30 is located on one side of the indium steel ruler 40 and extends along the length of the indium steel ruler 40, so that the light emitted by the lighting strip 30 can be irradiated to the outer surface of the indium steel ruler 40, avoiding the use of a flashlight to irradiate the indium steel ruler 40, thereby saving human resources.
[0041] During use, the first wireless mobile communication module 501 is installed on the first supporting assembly 10 or the second supporting assembly 20, the first wireless mobile communication module 501 moves with the measuring tool 100, and the second wireless mobile communication module 503 is held by the measuring observer.
