Advanced Geometric Dimensioning and Tolerancing (GD&T Training)

Prerequisite
Introduction to GD&T per ASME Y14.5-2009

Length
8 hours

Objective

Upon completion of this course, participants will be able:

  • Calculate minimum and maximum wall thicknesses, air spaces and interferences for assemblies.
  • Create loop analysis/circuit diagrams for tolerance stack-up analysis for both plus and minus tolerance dimensions and geometric tolerances.
  • Create both simple and complex number charts for stack-up analysis using a variety of geometric tolerances, basic dimensions, resultant conditions, virtual conditions and plus and minus tolerance dimensions.
  • Apply tolerance stack-up analysis for floating fastener situations for clearance holes, screws and shafts.
  • Apply tolerance stack-up analysis for fixed fastener situations using, screws, clearance holes, slots, tabs, overall dimensions and projected tolerance zones for threaded holes.
  • Calculate minimum and maximum gaps for assemblies that use a variety of datum structures.
  • Apply a system of logic and mathematics to analyze tolerances
