 GD&T stands for Geometric
Dimensioning & Tolerances
1- Dimension:
is a geometric characteristic the size of which is specified such as length,
angle, location, or center distance.

2- Tolerance:
on a dimension is the total permissible variation in its size, which is
equal to the difference between the limits of size.
Or
is the total amount dimension may vary. It is defined as the difference
between the upper and lower limits.

 While Assembly Process, we
have to consider!!!
1- Surface Finish

2- Tolerances
- Size
- Geometry

Dimensioning Rules

1- Circle???
2- Incremental or Reference (Datum).
3- Repeated (Duplicated)??
4- Intersected ??
5- 6 or 9 ???
6- Outside ??

 Tolerances Purpose
1. To control an interchangeability of parts.

2. To ensures the mating part will have a desired fit.
