This document provides an overview of geometrical dimensioning and tolerancing (GD&T). It defines GD&T, lists its benefits such as reduced costs and defects, and describes the main types including form, orientation, location, and runout tolerances. Examples of specific tolerances like straightness, parallelism, position, and total runout are given along with illustrations of their tolerance zones. The document aims to explain the basic concepts and principles of GD&T.

14. Some general priciples
Basic concepts
Geometrical tolerances shall be specified in accordance with functional
requirements. Manufacturing and inspection requirements can also
influence geometrical tolerancing

15. Some general priciples
Basic concepts
Geometrical tolerances which are assigned to features related to a datum
do not limit the form deviations of the datum feature itself. It may be
necessary to specify tolerances of form for the datum feature(s)

16. Some general priciples
Basic concepts
Feature control frame

17. Some general priciples
Three golden rules
1. Location tolerances of a feature control location
deviation, orientation deviation and form deviation of
this feature, and not vice-versa.
2. Orientation tolerances of a feature control
orientation and form deviations of this feature and not
vice-versa.
3. Form tolerances of a feature control only form
deviations of this feature.re control frame
