Tolerance: Tolerance is the total permissible variation from the specified basic size of the part. It is defined as the magnitude of permissible variation of a dimension or measured control criterion from specified value.
Basic size: The basic size is the size on which variation permitted.
Actual size: The size of a feature obtained by measurement

INTERPRETATION
INTRODUCTION TO GEOMETRIC TOLERANCES
• Geometric characteristic symbols are a set of fourteen Symbols used in the language of geometric tolerancing.
• The symbols are divided into five categories:
1. Form2. Profile3. Orientation4. Location 5. Runout
Feature Control Frame• Geometric tolerances are specified
on a drawing through the use of a feature control frame.

W or w/o zone Modifier
Feature Control Frame
Tolerance frame5.1 The tolerance requirements are shown in a rectangular frame which is divided into two or more compartments. These compartments contain, from left to right ,in the following order (see figures 3,4 and 5) :_ The symbol for the characteristic to be toleranced:_ The tolerance value in the unit used for linear dimensions. This value is preceded by the sign Φ if the tolerance zone is circular or cylindrical:_ if appropriate, the letter or letters identifying the datum feature (see figures 4 and 5)
Figures 5
Figures 4
Figures 3
Tolerance frame(contd)• 5.2 Remarks related to the
tolerance, for example “6 holes”, “4 surfaces” or “6x” shall be written above the frame (see figures 6 and 7)
• 5.3 Indications qualifying the form of the feature within the tolerance zone shall be within near the tolerance frame and may be connected by a leader line (see figures 8 and 9)
Figure 6 Figure 7
Figure 8 Figure 9
Tolerance frame(contd)
5.4 If it is necessary to specify more than one tolerance characteristic for a feature, the tolerance specifications are given in tolerance frames one under the other (see figure 10)
Figure 10
Toleranced features
• The tolerance frame is connected to the toleranced feature by a leader line terminating with an arrow in the following way:
• _ on the outline of the feature or an extention of the outline ( but clearly separated from the dimension line) when the tolerance refers to the line surface itself (see figures 11 and 12)
Figure11
Figure12
Toleranced features (contd)
• _ as an extension of a dimension line when the tolerance refers to the axis or median plane defined by the feature so dimensioned (see figures 13 to 15)
Figure15
Figure14
Figure13
Toleranced features (contd)• _ on the axis when the tolerance
refers to the axis or median plane of all features common to that axis or median plane(see figures 16,17 and 18)
Figure18Figure17
Figure16
Tolerance zones7.1 The width of the tolerance zone is in the direction of the arrow of the leader line joining the tolerance frame to the feature which is tolerance, unless the tolerance value is preceded by the sign Ø (see figures 19&20).
Figure 19 Figure 20
Tolerance zones (contd)• 7.2 In general, the direction of the width of the tolerance zone is
normal to the specified geometry of the part (see figures 21&22)
Figure 21Figure 22
Tolerance zones (contd)• 7.3 The direction of the tolerance zone shall be indicated when
desired not normal to the specified geometry of the part (see figures 23&24)

Figure 23 Figure 24
Tolerance zones (contd)7.4 Individual tolerance zones of the same value applied to several separate features can be specified as shown in figures 25&26.
Figure 25 Figure 26
7.5 Where a common tolerance zone is applied to several separate features, the requirement is indicated by the words “common zone” above the tolerance frame (see figures 27&28).

Datums8.1 When a tolerance feature is related to a datum, this is generally shown by datum latter which defines the datum is repeated in the tolerance frame.To identify the datum, a capital letter enclosed in a frame is connected to a solid or blank datum triangle (see figures 29&30).
Figure 29 Figure 30
8.2 The Datum triangle with the datum letter is placed:-On the outline of the feature or an extension of the out line (but
clearly separated from the dimension line), when the datum feature is the line or surface itself (see figures 31)
Figure 31
- as an extension of the dimension line when the datum feature is the axis or median plane (see figures 32 to 34). NOTE - If there is insufficient space for two arrows, one of them may be
replaced by the datum triangle (see figures 33 and 34). on the axis or median plane when the datum is :
a) the axis or median plane of a single feature (for example a cylinder);
b) the common axis or plane formed by two features (see figure 35).
8.3 If the tolerance frame can be directly connected with the datum feature by a leader line, the datum letter may be omitted (see figures 36 and 37).
8.4 A single datum is identified by a capital letter (see figure 38).A common datum formed by two features is identified by two datum letter separated by a hyphen (see figure 39).
If the sequence of two or more datum features is important the datum letters are placed in different compartments (see figure 40), where the sequence from left to right shows the order of priority.
If the sequence of two or more datum features is not important the datum letters are indicated in the same compartment (see figure 41).
9 Restrictive specifications
9.1 If the tolerance is applied to a restricted length, lying anywhere, the value of this length shall be added after the tolerance value and separated from it by an oblique stroke.
In the case of a surface, the same indication is used. This means that the tolerance applies to all lines of the restricted length in any position and any direction (see figure 42).
9.2 If a smaller tolerance of the same type is added to the tolerance on the whole feature, but restricted over a limited length, the restrictive tolerance shall be indicated in the lower compartment (see figure 43).
9.3 If the tolerance is applied to a restricted part of the feature only, this shall be dimensioned as shown in figure 44.
9.4 If the datum is applied to a restricted part of the datum feature only, this shall be dimensioned as shown in figure 45.•9.5 Restrictions to the form of the feature within
the tolerance zone are shown in 5.3.

Theoretically exact dimensions
If tolerances of position or of profile or of angularity are prescribed for a feature, the dimensions determining the theoretically exact position, profile or angle respectively, shall not be toleranced.
These dimensions are enclosed, for example The corresponding actual dimensions of the part are subject only to the position tolerance, profile tolerance or angularity tolerance specified within the tolerance frame (see figures 46 and 47).
• Projected tolerance zone In some causes the tolerances of orientation and location shall apply not to the feature itself but to the external projection of it. Such projected tolerance zones are to be indicated by the symbol (see figure 48).

FEATURE OF SIZE• This is one cylindrical or spherical
surface, or set of two opposed elements or parallel surfaces associated with size dimension which has an axis, center line or center plane contained within it.
• Features of size are features, which do have diameter or thickness.
• These may be cylinders, such as shafts and holes. They may also be slots, rectangular or flat parts, where two parallel flat surfaces are considered to form a single feature.
How many feature of size are there?
FEATURE OF SIZE NON FEATURE OF SIZE
EXTERNAL AND INTERNAL FOS
• External FOS are comprised of part surfaces that are external surfaces.– Like shaft diameter or width and
height of a planner surfaces.
• Internal FOS is comprised of part surfaces (or elements) that are internal part surfaces.– like hole diameter or the width of a
slot.
Example:

different functional reasons.
• Geometric tolerances are often specified to apply at MMC when the function of a FOS is assembly.
• Geometric tolerances are often specified to apply at LMC to insure a minimum distance on a part.
• Geometric tolerances are often specified to apply at RFS to insure symmetrical relationships.
MODIFIERS
• Modifiers communicate additional information about the drawing or Tolerancing of a part.
• There are nine common modifiers used in geometric tolerancing.
Nine modifiers
PROJECTED TOLERANCE ZONE• Symbol: P• The projected tolerance zone modifier changes the
location of the tolerance zone on the part.
• It projects the tolerance zone above the part surface.
• Height of the projected tolerance zone should be equal to the max. thickness of the mating part.
FEATURE CONTROL FRAME WITH A PROJECTED TOLERENCE ZONE SYMBOL
Using a Projected Tolerance Zone•A projected tolerance zone is a tolerance zone that is projected above the part surface. •A projected tolerance zone modifier is specified as P
•A projected tolerance zone is used to limit theperpendicularity of a hole to ensure assembly with mating part.
Using a Projected Tolerance Zone (Contd..)
Using a Projected Tolerance Zone (contd.)
TANGENT PLANE MODIFIER• The tangent plane modifier denotes that only the
tangent plane of the toleranced surface needs to be within this tolerance zone.
DIAMETER MODIFIER
• The diameter symbol is used twoways: inside a feature control frame as a modifier to denote the shape of the tolerance zone, or outside the feature control frame to simply replace the word "diameter“.
Ø Inside the feature control frame
Ø Outside the feature control frame
Reference modifier• The modifier for reference is simply
the method of denoting that information is for reference only.
• The information is not to be used for manufacturing or inspection.
• To designate a dimension or other information as reference, the reference information is enclosed in parentheses.
Reference Example:
RADIUS MODIFIER• Arcs are dimensioned with radius symbol
on drawings.• A radius is a straight line extending from
the center of an arc or a circle to its surface.
• The Symbol for a radius is "R“.• When the "R" symbol is used, it creates a
zone defined by two arcs.• The part surface must lie within this zone.• The part surface may have flats or
reversals within the tolerance zone.
Radius modifier
Controlled Radius
• The symbol for a controlled radius is "CR“.
• it creates a tolerance zone defined by two arcs.
• The part surface must be within the crescent-shaped tolerance zone and be an arc without flats or reversals.

1.Understand Rule #1 and Rule #2.
2. Understand the concepts of basic dimensions, virtual condition, inner and outer boundary, worst-case boundary and bonus tolerance.
RULES & CONCEPTS OF GD & TRULES & CONCEPTS OF GD & T
Rule #1Rule #1 is referred to as the "Individual Feature of Size Rule."
In industry the Rule #1 is paraphrased as “perfect form at MMC” or the “envelope rule”.
“Where only a tolerance of size is specified, the limits of size of an individual feature prescribe the extent to which variations in its form as well as in its size are allowed”.
An example of effects of Rule #1 on a planar FOS.
In Rule #1, the words perfect form mean perfect flatness, straightness, circularity and cylindricity. In other words if the feature of size is produced at MMC, it is required to have perfect form.
TECHNOTE – For features of size, where only a tolerance of size is specified, the surfaces shall not extend beyond a boundary (envelope) of perfect form at MMC.
INSPECTING A FEATURE OF SIZE
When inspecting a FOS that is controlled by Rule #1, both its size and form need to be verified. The MMC size and the Rule #1 envelope can be verified with a Go gage. A Go gage is made to the MMC limit of the FOS and has perfect form.Go gage must be at least as long as the FOS it is verifying.
The minimum size (LMC) of a FOS can be measured with a No-Go gage.A No-Go gage is made to the LMC limit of the FOS.
Rule#2
“RFS applies, with respect to the individual tolerance, datum reference, or both, where no modifying symbol is specified. MMC and LMC must be specified on the drawing where required”.

Rule #2a is an alternative practice of Rule #2 according to which RFS may be specified as a symbol in feature control frames if desired and applicable.
INTRODUCTION TO BASIC INTRODUCTION TO BASIC DIMENSIONSDIMENSIONS
Basic Dimension
The basic dimension is the goal, and a geometric tolerance specifies the amount of acceptable variation from the goal.
“A basic dimension is a numerical value used to describe the theoretically exact size, true profile, orientation, or location of a feature or gage information (i.e., datum targets)”.
On engineering drawings there are two uses for basic dimensions:
1. To define the theoretically exact location, size, orientation, or true profile of a part feature.
2. To define gauge information.
Basic dimensions must get their tolerances from a geometric tolerance or from a special note.
The basic dimension only specifies half the requirement. To complete the specification, a geometric tolerance must be added to the feature involved with the basic dimension.
Basic Dimension Symbol
Basic Dimension examples.
No geometric control is used on basic dimensions that specify datum targets. When basic dimensions specify datum targets, they are considered gage dimensions.

FLATNESS
Definition : Flatness is the condition of a surface having all of its elements in one plane. The tolerance zone for a flatness control is three-dimensional.General representation
Interpretation of Flatness tolerance :
It consists of two parallel planes within which all the surface elements must lie. The distance between the parallel planes is equal to the flatness control tolerance value.
Rule #1 Effect on Flatness•Whenever Rule #1 applies to a feature of size that consists of two parallel planes, an automatic indirect flatness control exists for both surfaces.
Rule #1 Effect on Flatness•When the feature of size is at MMC, both surfaces must be perfectly flat. •As the feature departs from MMC, a flatness error equal to the amount of the departure is allowed.
Flatness Control ApplicationSome examples of when a designer uses flatness control on a drawing are to provide a flat surface:• For a gasket or seal.• To attach a mating part.• For better contact with a datum plane.
When these types of applications are involved, the indirect flatness control that results from Rule #1 is often not sufficient to satisfy the functional requirements of the part surface.
This is when a flatness control is specified on a drawing:
Inspecting Flatness•Establish the first plane of the tolerance zone by placing the part surface on a surface plate that has a small hole.
• The surface plate becomes the true counterpart of the controlled feature. A dial indicator is set in the small hole.
• The tip of the dial indicator traces a path across the entire part surface.
• Then the part is moved over the hole at random.
• If the FIM (full indicator movement) is larger than the flatness tolerance value at any point on the path, then the surface flatness is not within its specification.
STRAIGHTNESS :Definition : Straightness of a line element is the condition where each line element (or axis or center plane) is a straight line.The tolerance zone for a straightness control (as a surface line element control) is two-dimensional.General Representation :
General Representation
Interpretation (Straightness applied to the surface element)
Rule#1’s Effects on Surface Straightness• Whenever Rule #1 is in effect, an automatic indirect straightens control exists for the surface line elements.
Rule#1’s Effects on Surface Straightness• When the feature of size is at MMC, the line elements must be perfectly straight. Asthe FOS departs from MMC a straightness error equal to the amount of the departure is allowed.
Interpretation (Straightness applied to the axis)
0.2
0.2mm
Straightness at MMC Application• A common reason for applying a straightness control at MMC to a FOS on a drawing is to insure the function of assembly. • Whenever the MMC modifier is used in a straightness control, it means the stated tolerance applies when the FOS is produced at MMC.
Straightness at MMC Application• An important benefit becomes available when straightness is applied at MMC: extra tolerance is permissible. • As the FOS departs from MMC towards LMC, a bonus tolerance becomes available.
Inspecting a Straightness Control (Applied to a FOS at MMC)
Definition: Circularity is a condition where all points of a surface of revolution, at any Section perpendicular to a common axis, are equidistant from that axis.General representation:

CIRCULARITY
Example :
•A circularity control is a geometric tolerance that limits the amount of circularity on a part surface.
•It specifies that each circular element of a feature’s surface must lie within a tolerance zone of two coaxial circles.
•It also applies independently at each cross section element and at a right angle to the feature axis.
•The radial distance between the circles is equal to the circularity control tolerance value.
Circularity control :

Circularity application :
•Is to limit the lobing (out of round) of a shaft diameter.
•In certain cases, lobing of a shaft diameter will cause bearings or bushings to fail prematurely.
Circularity application :
•The diameter must be within its size tolerance.
•The circularity control does not override Rule #1.
•The circularity control tolerance must be less than the size tolerance.
•The circularity control does not affect the outer boundary of the FOS.

Example & Interpretation:
•A cylindricity control is a geometric tolerance that limits the amount of cylindricity error permitted on a part surface.
•It specifies a tolerance zone of two coaxial cylinders within which all points of the surface must lie. A cylindricity control applies simultaneously to the entire surface.
•The radial distance between the two coaxial cylinders is equal to the cylindricity control tolerance value.
•A cylindricity control is a composite control that limits the circularity, straightness, and taper of a diameter simultaneously.
Cylindricity control :
Cylindricity application :
•Is to limit the surface conditions (out of round, taper, and straightness) of a shaft diameter.
•In certain cases, surface conditions of a shaft diameter will cause bearings or bushings to fail prematurely.
Cylindricity application :
•The diameter must also be within its size tolerance.
•The cylindricity control does not override Rule #1.
•The cylindricity control tolerance must be less than the total size tolerance.
•The cylindricity control does not affect the outer boundary of the FOS.
INSPECTION OF CYLINDRICITY
DATUM SYSTEMS (PLANAR DATUM)
• Set of symbols and rules that communicates to the drawing user how dimensional measurements are to be made.
WHY DATUM SYSTEM?
• First, it allows the designer to specify which part surfaces are to contact the inspection equipment for the measurement of a dimension.
• Second, the datum system allows the designer to specify, in which sequence the part is to contact the inspection equipment for the measurement of a dimension.
BENEFITS OF DATUM SYSTEM
-It aids in making repeatable dimensional measurements.
-It aids in communicating part functional relationships.-It aids in making the dimensional measurement as
intended by the designer.
CONSEQUENCES
-Good parts are rejected-Bad parts are accepted
DATUMS(PLANAR)
• DATUM• DATUM FEATURE• DATUM FEATURE SIMULATOR• SIMULATED DATUM• DATUM FEATURE SYMBOL• DATUM SELECTION
DATUM
• A datum is a theoretically exact plane, point or axis from which a dimensional measurement is made.
• A Datum is the true geometric counter part of a datum feature
• A true geometric counter part is the theoretical perfect boundary or best fit tangent plane of a datum feature.
DATUM FEATURE
• A datum feature is a part feature that exists on the part and contacts a datum.
SIMULATED DATUM
• A simulated datum is the plane established by the inspection equipment.
DATUM FEATURE SIMULATOR
•A datum feature simulator is the inspection equipment that includes the gage elements used to establish the simulated datum.
DATUM FEATURE SYMBOL• The symbol used to specify a datum feature on a
drawing is called the datum feature symbol.
FOUR WAYS OF REPRESENTING PLANAR DATUMS
DATUM REFERENCE IN FEATURE CONTROL FRAME
• The drawing must communicate when and how the datums should be used. This is typically done through the use of feature control frames.
DATUM REFERENCE IN FEATURE CONTROL FRAME
DATUM REFRENCE FRAME
• A datum reference frame is a set of three mutually perpendicular datum planes.
• The datum reference frame provides direction as well as an origin of dimensional measurements.
DATUM REFRENCE FRAME
Datum-related versus FOS dimensions
• Only dimensions that are related to a datum reference frame through geometric tolerances should measure in a datum reference frame.
• If a dimension is not associated to a datum reference frame with a geometric tolerance, then there is no specification on how to locate the part in the datum frame.
Datum-related versus FOS dimensions(contd…)
INCLINED DATUM FEATURES
• An inclined datum feature is a datum feature that is at an angle other than 90°, relative to the other datum features.
MULTIPLE DATUM REFERENCE FRAMES
• A part may have as many datum reference frames as needed to define its functional relationships.
COPLANAR DATUM FEATURES
• COPLANAR SURFACES.
• COPLANAR DATUM FEATURES.-In this case, a datum feature symbol is attached to a profile control.-The profile control limits the flatness and
co planarity of the surfaces.
COPLANAR DATUM FEATURES(contd…)
DATUM TARGETS• Datum targets are symbols that describe the shape,
size and location of gauge elements that used to establish datum planes or axes.
• Datum targets are shown on the part surfaces on a drawing, but they actually do not exist on a part.
• Datum targets can be specified to simulate a point, line or area contact on a part.
• The use of datum targets allows a stable and repeatable relationship for a part with its gauge.
• Datum targets should be specified on parts where it is not practical (or possible) to use an entire surface as a datum feature.
DATUM TARGETS SYMBOLS
• A datum target application uses two of symbols:1.A datum target identification symbol2.Symbols that denote which type of
gauge elements are to be used.• The leader line from the symbol specifies whether
the datum target exists on the surface shown or on the hidden surface side of the part.
• Three symbols used to denote the type of gauge element in a datum target application are the symbols for a target point, a target line, and a target area.
DATUM TARGETS SYMBOLS(contd….)
DATUM TARGETS SYMBOLS(contd….)
• A datum target point is specified by an X shaped symbol, consisting of a pair of lines intersecting at 90°.

Interpretation
• Tolerance zone – a cylinder that is parallel to the datum plane.
• Diameter of the tolerance zone – specified tolerance value.
• The axis of the diameter must be within the tolerance zone.
• A bonus tolerance is permissible.• A fixed gauge may be used to verify the
parallelism control.• Parallelism tolerance zone limits flatness of the
toleranced feature.
