MET1400 Geometric Dimensioning and Tolerancing
Geometric Dimensioning and Tolerancing (GD&T) uses a system of reference planes and special symbols to communicate the relationship between the surfaces and features on manufactured parts. This course will focus on the symbology, terminology, and application of GD&T, as described in standards ASME Y14.5 1994 and ASME Y14.5 2009. Students will learn the role that GD&T plays in both design and manufacturing; will learn to recognize, interpret, and apply tolerances of form, location, and orientation; and will learn to build feature control frames and properly use modifiers.
