GD&T Advanced Concepts
2 Days
Course Summary
This two-day course is a continuation of GD&T Fundamentals, again focusing on practical GD&T applications and introducing additional advanced concepts such as composite position, datum shift, and more complex GD&T Controls. This workshop provides further guidance on application of GD&T as per the ASME Y14.5M 2009 standard.
Target Audience
Individuals who are proficient with the concepts and practices of GD&T would benefit from the Advanced Concepts training.
Prerequisites
Some proficiency with GD&T Fundamentals is required to get the most benefit from this advanced GD&T concepts course.
Course Objectives
This program is a continuation of your education in the Y14.5 standard. There will be discussions about being able to identify both correct and incorrect drawings with GD&T. In this program, we focus on the application and interpretation of GD&T – another step closer to becoming a GD&T expert.
