Applications of GD&T 2-Day
The course focuses on what constitutes good and poor drawing practices, common dimensioning methods used in industry, using GD&T to communicate system functions on component dimensions, and the logic of how to apply GD&T to components.
Newly acquired learning is reinforced when students perform a design function analysis on a part assembly provided by your company, then specify GD&T on assembly components during the workshop. (This is optional in case of concerns over drawings and privacy.)
Each attendee receives a robust collection of learning resources including:
- A copy of Applications of GD&T Workshop Exercise Workbook
- Course notes
- Drawing handouts
What Will You Learn
- Describe the importance of technically correct drawings

- Indentify and specify datum features based on the fit and functional requirements of the part
- Use GD&T to communicate functional requirements of a component
- Describe how to specify nonfunctional dimensions
- Explain the five-step approach to functionally dimensioning a component
- Apply the five-step method to functionally dimensioning a component to your company product
