OBJECTIVES
1) Review the basic concepts and introduce the more complex concepts of the Y14.5M-1994
standard
2) Provide participants with the knowledge of proper Datum Feature selection and specification
3) Enable participants to calculate functional tolerances for position and other tolerances
REASONS FOR ATTENDING
Your drawings have GD&T on them! If you have been through the GD&T Basic Level, and you
need more knowledge and skill to increase your effectiveness, this course is for you. In this
program, we focus on the more advanced concepts of GD&T - another step closer to
becoming a GD&T expert.
PROGRAM OUTLINE
The program begins with a review of GD&T, then continues with
practical exercises
designed to enhance knowledge and build confidence. This class
consists of lecture, maximum experience and participation format. The subject matter covered is (as
a minimum):
- Introduction: objectives, review Basic GD&T.
- General rules of dimensioning and drafting review.
- Review of the more complex controls: composite position,
tolerance of position, etc.
- Datum Reference Frames: proper selection and utilization exercises.
- Calculating tolerances for maximum producibility and 100% interchangeability.
- Functional gauge design: "Soft" or "Paper" as well as tooled gauges

CONTINUING SERVICE
We are particularly concerned that the individuals that we teach actually retain that which we and their
companies have worked so hard to present. This concern is precisely why we offer, for each participant of our
seminar, access to a senior consultant (usually the instructor of the course) who will be available to answer
any follow-on questions after the course via telephone or fax.
