1-Day GD&T Primer

GD&T is a system of symbols and notes used on engineering drawings to specify the amount of variation from the CAD model that a manufactured part is allowed to have. Also known as the tolerances, this allowable variation has a profound impact on the manufacturing and quality inspection plan for any part. GD&T is used to ensure that everyone is on the same page regarding how the features on parts are defined. When a design engineer releases a drawing to be produced, they need a common technical language for communicating exactly what must be produced. GD&T is the language used during that communication.


Course Outline:

  • The Basics of Manufacturing Prints
  • Dimensions
  • Numeric Tolerances
  • Geometric Tolerance Fundamentals
  • The Datum Reference Frame Concept
  • Interpretation of Geometric Controls


Students will be able to:

  •  Calculate minimum and maximum allowable values for dimensions considering numeric tolerances.
  • Learn how geometric tolerances supplement conventional tolerances to specify limits on allowable variation.
  • Recognize the symbols used with the geometric system of tolerances.
  • Recognize basic dimensions on prints and understand their meaning.
  • Identify and properly read feature control frames.
  • Recognize when bonus tolerance is available and calculate geometric tolerance values when bonus tolerance applies.
  • Recognize datum feature identifiers applied to features with size and surfaces.
  • Analyze the datum reference frame including order of precedence.
  • Identify and read geometric controls on location, orientation, form, profile & runout.


Who Should Attend:

  • Engineering managers and supervisors
  • Mechanical design engineers & engineering technicians
  • Quality Control personnel
  • Machine shop and tool room supervisors
  • Supplier quality engineers
