Our GD&T Advanced course builds upon the core framework established in the GD&T Fundamentals course. Because Geometric Dimensioning and Tolerancing standards cover every manufacturing application across every industry, the GD&T Advanced course gives students a more comprehensive understanding of GD&T standards and their application. This course fleshes out our Fundamentals framework to show students how every GD&T Symbol and Callout are used.
By the time you complete this course, you’ll be able to:
- Understand every term and concept contained within the GD&T Standards
- Learn how advanced datum controls are interpreted and applied in measurement
- Understand functional gaging and how to design a gage for quick part inspection
- Learn the benefits of composite controls for position and profile tolerances and how to interpret them
- Know how to calculate fixed & floating fastener applications and guarantee the fits of bolted connections
- Learn cost saving techniques that benefit manufacturing processes and inspection
- Perform boundary tolerance calculations on parts to detect minimum and maximum limits
- Gain a full understanding of their industry’s specific topics in the ASME Y14.5 standard
You’ll leave this course equipped to design, interpret, and understand GD&T real engineering drawings—and empowered to work more confidently, communicate more clearly, and produce parts more efficiently.
Our GD&T Advanced course is great for individuals and companies seeking advanced techniques to save costs, open up tolerances and understand GD&T best practices for design, production and inspection.
Our Advanced GD&T course is ideal for:
