SUMMARY

The discussion focuses on finding quality resources for learning Geometric Dimensioning and Tolerancing (GD&T). Participants recommend seeking both introductory and in-depth textbooks that cater to self-learners. While various online tutorials exist, the emphasis is on personal experiences with specific texts rather than general reference materials. The goal is to identify effective learning tools that enhance understanding of GD&T principles.

PREREQUISITES
  • Understanding of basic engineering drawing concepts
  • Familiarity with manufacturing processes and tolerances
  • Knowledge of CAD software for practical application
  • Basic mathematical skills for interpreting dimensions
NEXT STEPS
  • Research "Geometric Dimensioning and Tolerancing textbooks" for comprehensive learning materials
  • Explore "GD&T online courses" for structured learning paths
  • Investigate "GD&T software tools" for practical applications in design
  • Read reviews on "GD&T reference books" to gauge effectiveness and depth
USEFUL FOR

Engineering students, mechanical designers, quality control professionals, and anyone interested in mastering Geometric Dimensioning and Tolerancing principles.

Can someone recommend a great textbook or resource for geometric dimensioning and tolerancing that would be appropriate for self-learners? An introductory text would be good, but better would be a textbook that covers it in depth.
 
Physics news on Phys.org
I did a Google search for "geometric dimensioning and tolerancing tutorial". It is also abbreviated GD&T.

All of the top hits appear to be good starting points; some of them may reference textbooks.
 
I understand that, but I'm not looking for a reference book. I really just wanted to see what people's experiences were with the options currently available.
