{{ package.Quantity }} {{ package.Title }}

This advanced, online, instructor-supported course thoroughly covers some of the more used geometric dimensioning controls used on mechanical engineering drawings. The basic applications of position are explained in greater detail including fixed and floating fastener, zero tolerance, size feature datums, and composite vs. two single segments. How to control the size and location non-size features are also explained. Coaxial relationships and control of rectangular features are also covered.

Special Requirement

Access to the ASME Y14.5 - 2018 Dimensioning and Tolerancing Standard is required. While required, the Y14.5 Standard is not included in the purchase of the course. To purchase the Y14.5 Standard, click here.

By participating in this course you will learn how to successfully:

  • Develop an in-depth understanding of GD&T
  • Explain basic applications of position and size concepts
  • Identify practical tools that you can apply on the job

Who Should Attend?

Professionals who use the ASME Y14.5 Dimensioning and Tolerancing standard, who work in design, drafting, quality, procurement, tooling, production, and manufacturing.

A Certificate of Completion will be issued to registrants who successfully complete the course and achieve a passing score on all instructor-graded assignments and 75% or higher on all assessments.

To take this course you should have a personal computer, Web browser, Internet connection, and software to display PDF files (such as Adobe Reader).
