GD&T: Application and Interpretation, based on the ASME Y14.5-2009 standard, is targeted to programs that require a study of geometric dimensioning and tolerancing as related to design, manufacturing, or inspection. Revised with readability in mind, this highly illustrated text contains topics ranging from the fundamentals of dimensioning to the extended principles of tolerance application and interpretation. The author is certified by ASME as a Senior Level Geometric Dimensioning and Tolerancing Professional and has participated in the development of national and international standards since 1986.
- Thorough explanations of requirements in the ASME Y14.5-2009 standard are presented.
- Extensive use of color in illustrations reinforces and clarifies information.
- Review questions and application problems, found at the end of each chapter, test comprehension and reinforce learning.
