Geometrical Tolerancing to BS 8888 & ISO Standards – Level 2

GD&T ISO Level 2 Course Aim

The course covers more advanced aspects of geometrical tolerancing and its application and interpretation.  Completion of the Level 1 course is a prerequisite for anyone wishing to attend the Level 2 course.

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.

Course Description

Modules:
  • Review of Level 1 material                
  • Geometrical specifications     (additional indications and modifiers)
  • Grouping features together (CZ, SZ    and SIM)
  • Advanced datum systems
  • Maximum Material Requirement applied to datum features.
  • Least Material Requirement
  • Multiple tolerances applied to groups of features

Who the course is for

  • Designers
  • Engineers
  • Inspectors
  • Technicians
  • Engineering Management

Learning Outcomes

  • Tolerance zone definitions (fixed, variable, limited, etc)
  • Tolerance feature definitions (filters, associations, etc)
  • Plane and feature indicators (intersection plane indicators, etc)

  • Grouping tolerance zones (CZ, SZ, CZR, and SIM)
  • Multiple tolerances applied to groups of features (e.g. hole patterns)
  • Datums and ‘situation features’
  • Common datums based on aligned and non-aligned features
  • Datums based on groups of features
  • Datums based on complex surfaces
