Geometric dimensioning and
tolerancing
symbolic language
engineering drawing standard
known as GD&T
simplifies communication between
designers
enables mass production
explicitly describes nominal geometry
and its allowable variation

GD&T symbols

History of GD&T
in use since beginning of 20. century
important in 2.W.W. (high volume
production of weapons)
spread into automotive and computer
industry
ANSI Y14.5M-1982
ASME Y14.5M-1994
25.3.2007 Daniel Milde, 2007 5
GD&T rules
All dimensions must have a tolerance
Dimensioning and tolerancing shall completely
define the nominal geometry and allowable
variation
Measurement and scalling of the drawing is not
allowed
Engineering drawings define the requirements of
finished (complete) parts
No descriptions of manufacturing methods
