Geometric Dims & Tolerancing
Uses Standard Symbols To Indicate Tolerances That Are Based On The Features Geometry. Sometimes Called Feature-Based Dimensioning & Tolerancing, Or True Position Dimensioning & Tolerancing Uses Feature Control Frames To Indicate Tolerance(s) State of the Art for Tolerances

Geometric?
The G in GD&T refers to Geometric Forms
e.g., plane, circle, cylinder, sq, or hexagon
Theoretically these forms are Perfect but any REAL Form will be Imperfect In GD&T The Limits of Real Variation (tolerance) are Specified by the Diameter/Width of a Planer, Cylindrical, Annular, or Spherical Zone

History of Tolerancing
In the 1800s, manufacturing used the cut & try, file & fit approach. The plus-minus (or coordinate) system of tolerancing was next developed. In the 1900s, the first GD&T standards came out to improve the quality & utility of engineering drawings. In 1966, the united GD&T standard was published ANSI - Y14.5M

GD&T Definitions - 1
Feature
General term applied to a physical portion of a part, such as a surface, hole, or slot.
Feature of Size (FOS)
One cylindrical or spherical surface, or a set of parallel surfaces, associated with a size dimension. (Can be external or internal)
Location Dimension
Locates the centerline or centerplane of a part feature relative to: another part feature, centerline, or datum.

GD&T Definitions - 2
Tolerance Zones
all geometric tolerances have imaginary tolerance zones that are the basis for acceptance or rejection of the product have specific shapes depending on the geometric tolerance and feature being controlled
Actual Local Size
the value of any individual distance at any cross section of a FOS

Actual Mating Envelope (AME)
a similar perfect feature counterpart that can be circumscribed/inscribed about/within the feature so it just contacts the surfaces at the highest & lowest points It is derived from an actual part Used When Calculating a Bonus Tolerance

Envelope Principle
Proper Tolerancing establishes the ENVELOPE of the perfect part Any deviation in FORM is acceptable, as long as it remains within the limits of size

Understanding Tolerance Zones
Traditional type of tolerancing describes a SQUARE zone for acceptable locations.
GD&T describes a CIRCULAR zone around the theoretically exact location for the feature.

Angular Tolerances
Traditional methods for tolerancing angles require that angled surfaces be very accurate near the vertex of the angle, but can vary more along the length of the angled feature.
That is, the allowable DISPLACEMENT in inches or mm INCREASES with DISTANCE from the VERTEX

GD&T Caveat Use with Care
GDT is VERY Powerful, BUTIt it can be Quite CONFUSING and ESOTERIC Many Degreed Engineers, as well as Most Drafters/Designers, and Some Machinists have only a Vague Notion About Meaning of GDT Symbols
MisApplication and Confusion-Induced Delays are COMMON
e.g. Try asking what MMC or RFS means
