This course introduces apprentices to principles of geometric dimensioning and tolerancing (GD&T) governed by the ASME Y14.5 standard. Apprentices will learn to identify and interpret each of the GD&T controls for form, profile, orientation, location, and runout. Apprentices will learn to interpret symbols, datums, basic dimensions, material condition modifiers, and other GD&T concepts that are essential for the machinist. Hands-on activities will emphasize interpreting GD&T found on engineering drawings, as well as the setup, measuring, and inspection of a part or features with geometric tolerancing.
