Geometric Dimensioning and Tolerancing provides thorough coverage of GD&T practices as established by the ASME Y14.5–2018 standard. From understanding symbols on existing drawings to calculating the tolerances for proper size and location of features, topics are introduced in a methodical manner to establish an understanding of basic concepts before building to more advanced applications. The use of second color in this heavily illustrated text enhances learning by highlighting callouts and labels separately from the symbols and text of each drawing.
