Geometrical Dimensioning & Tolerancing ISO – Level 1
GD&T ISO Level 1 Course Aim
The course covers the fundamental concepts of geometrical tolerancing and its application and interpretation. The course is suitable for anyone who is familiar with the conventions of engineering drawing and dimensional (or ±) tolerances and is relevant to anyone who has to produce or interpret mechanical engineering specifications.
The course is based on BS 8888 and ISO standards (a version is also available based on the American ASME Y14.5 standard). Delegates are provided with comprehensive course notes, and a workbook with questions and exercises to accompany the training material.
