GD&T position tolerances and dimensions define where features are located on a part with respect to other features. Position tolerances are typically used on holes, pins, tabs, slots, and other features of size. They are particularly useful when dealing with patterns of holes. This interactive, online course will discuss the use of GD&T for positional tolerances. It will also discuss bonus tolerance and functional gauges, as well as special considerations for positional tolerances.
Describe how to apply position tolerances to various features of size
Describe how to correctly identify and prioritize datum references
Explain how LMC and MMC designators apply to tolerance values and to datums
Describe how to specify a projected tolerance zone
Describe how to apply position tolerances to coaxial features
