Geometric Dimensioning and
Tolerancing – Applications, Analysis & Measurement [per ASME
Y14.5-2009]
Co-published by ASME, this textbook
reflects new symbology, rules and basic principle revisions. It
shows how to interpret design drawings and CAD representations of
product definitions that use the ASME Y14.5-2009 standard. It also
explains step-by-step procedures to apply the new Y14.5-2009
practices and allows dimensioning and tolerancing professionals to
express their design requirements more clearly.
