Geometric and Material Symbols Guide

The document defines various geometric characteristic symbols, material condition symbols, tolerance zone symbols, and other symbols used to represent features in technical drawings. Codes beginning with % indicate the type of geometric feature or dimensional attribute being referenced, such as flatness, straightness, circularity, maximum condition, projected tolerance zone, diameter, degree, and more. Many codes fetch and display the numerical value of the referenced feature dimension.
