Size dimensions can often restrict a feature more than is needed. When the shape or form of a feature is more important than its size, a geometric dimension and tolerance is typically used.

By the end of this course, you will be able to

  • Define maximum and least material conditions
  • List the five geometric characteristic categories
  • Identify geometric characteristic symbols
  • Define a datum and datum feature
  • Describe, identify, and interpret dimensions for angular features
  • Identify the sections of a feature control frame
  • Describe where datum feature symbols are located on an engineering drawing
