**Constant Structure:** A scale has constant structure if all Intervals of the same size are also within the same Generic Interval class. A single interval cannot be a part of two classes however. The 12-tone diatonic scale does not have this property, since tritones can either be augmented fourths or diminished fifths.

**Constant Structure:** A scale has constant structure if all Intervals of the same size are also within the same Generic Interval class. A single interval cannot be a part of two classes however. The 12-tone diatonic scale does not have this property, since tritones can either be augmented fourths or diminished fifths. This is referred to as the //partitioning property// in most academia literature.

**Propriety:** A scale is proper if there is no overlapping of Generic Interval Classes. This means that no third is larger than a fourth, no fourth is larger than a fifth, etc...
