Advanced Concepts of GD&T ASME Y14.5M 1994 - Foundational Level
This 2-day foundational-level course teaches advanced geometric dimensioning and tolerancing topics as prescribed in the ASME Y14.5M-1994 Standard.
The class offers an in-depth explanation of advanced GD&T topics including:- Product design and functional dimensioning
- Feature and feature of size
- Dimensioning standards on drawings
- Rigid and flexible (non-rigid) parts
- Requirements for parts measured in the restrained state
- Datum usage on restrained (non-rigid) parts
- Calculating advanced applications of form controls
- Uses, advantages, misconceptions, and common errors of the datum system
- Nine common datum feature types
- Advanced datum target concepts
- Modifier usage in tolerance of position applications
- The effects of simultaneous and separate requirements with tolerance of position
- Composite and multiple single-segment position and profile tolerancing
- Profile applications
Each participant receives: An Advanced Concepts of GD&T (ASME Y14.5M-1994) textbook, A GD&T Ultimate Pocket Guide (1994), and A Fundamentals of GD&T Exercise Workbook.
Newly acquired learning is reinforced throughout the class with approximately 200 practice problems. For additional advanced GD&T topics, including a discussion of the fundamentals of drawing interpretation, how to handle substandard drawings, how to specify/interpret specialized datum feature applications, interpreting tolerance of position applications with a conical tolerance zone, and 50 additional practice exercises, see our Advanced Concepts of GD&T 3-day advanced-level course.
