rkent Posted August 12, 2011 Posted August 12, 2011 Anyone here learned from or taught from a good text for GD&T? If so what is the title and who is the author? I need a recommendation from those that use or teach GD&T on a regular basis. Thanks Quote
rkent Posted August 12, 2011 Author Posted August 12, 2011 What is GD&T? Sorry, I didn't spell it out because I figured anyone that would be recommending a book would obviously know. ASME Y14.5-1994 or 2009 Geometric Dimensioning and Tolerancing Quote
Jack_O'neill Posted August 12, 2011 Posted August 12, 2011 Sorry, I didn't spell it out because I figured anyone that would be recommending a book would obviously know.ASME Y14.5-1994 or 2009 Geometric Dimensioning and Tolerancing DUH!! of course it is. I knew that. I was trying to come up with some sort of software or something. Must be past my bedtime. Quote
Jeff H Posted August 12, 2011 Posted August 12, 2011 Same here, My first thought was great a new Cad software to learn. Quote
SLW210 Posted August 12, 2011 Posted August 12, 2011 It is usually just a chapter or two in a drafting text. At least it was when I took board drafting in school. If you find a book dedicated to GD&T let me know, I searched for a while and only came up with purchasing the actual specs fron ANSI. Quote
jdits7 Posted August 12, 2011 Posted August 12, 2011 Give this book a try. GD&T: Application and Interpretation Quote
rkent Posted August 12, 2011 Author Posted August 12, 2011 Give this book a try.I GD&T: Application and Interpretation is this one you use or have used? Quote
Jack_O'neill Posted August 12, 2011 Posted August 12, 2011 Here's a pocket reference (available for Kindle too) if that will do you any good http://www.amazon.com/GD-Hierarchy-Pocket-Guide-ebook/dp/B0052OGN3W/ref=sr_1_11?ie=UTF8&qid=1313187246&sr=8-11 Quote
jdits7 Posted August 15, 2011 Posted August 15, 2011 I used a book similar, can't find the one that we use to use. We don't use much GD&T at my current job. Quote
rkent Posted August 15, 2011 Author Posted August 15, 2011 Looks like GD&T isn't used much, based on the responses, or lack thereof. I have one by Alex Krulikowski that seems good but I was hoping someone would make a personal recommendation based on their experiences. Thanks everyone. Quote
