C2B 1 Scope, Definitions, and General Dimensioning

1.3 Definitions. 1.3.3 Datum. A theoretically exact point, axis, line, or plane derived from the true geometric counterpart. A datum is the origin from which the location or geometric characteristics of features of a part are established. 1.3.5 Datum Feature Simulator. A surface of adequately precise form (such as a surface plate, a gage surface, fixture pad, pin, centering device, or a mandrel) used to establish the simulated datum(s). Note: Datum feature simulators are used as the practical embodiment of the datums during manufacture and inspection. 1.3.7 Datum Target. A specified point, line, or area on a drawing that represents a theoretically perfect fixture element. 1.3.9 Dimension, Basic. A numerical value used to describe the theoretically exact size, profile, orientation, or location of a feature; orientation or location of feature of size; or datum target. See Fig. 3-7. It is the basis from which permissible variations are established by tolerances on other dimensions, in notes, or in feature control frames. See Figs. 2-14, 2-15, and 325. Title block or general plus/minus tolerances do not apply to basic dimensions. 1.3.11 Envelope, Actual Mating. A general term used to refer to an unrelated or related actual mating envelope. Note: Changes to the definition of Actual Mating Envelope have had numerous effects on figures in Y14.5. Appendix NEW F outlines the effects on figures in Y14.5. 1.3.11.1 Envelope, Unrelated Actual Mating. An unrelated actual mating envelope, (unrelated to a datum reference frame), can be either external or internal as described below: (a) For an external feature of size, a similar perfect feature counterpart of smallest size that can be circumscribed about the feature of size so that it contacts the surface or surfaces. For example, a smallest cylinder of perfect form or two parallel planes of perfect form at minimum separation that contacts the surface(s). See Fig. 1-57. (b) For an internal feature of size, a similar perfect feature counterpart of largest size that can
be inscribed within the feature of size so that it contacts the surface or surfaces. For example, a largest cylinder of perfect form or two parallel planes of perfect form at maximum separation that contacts the surface(s). 1.3.11.2 Envelope, Related Actual Mating. A related actual mating envelope, (related to a datum reference frame), can be either external or internal as described below: (a) For an external feature of size datum feature, a similar perfect feature counterpart of smallest size that can be circumscribed about the feature of size so that it contacts the surface or surfaces. For example, the smallest cylinder of perfect form or two parallel planes of perfect form at minimum separation that contacts the surface(s). This envelope is oriented relative to the appropriate datum(s), See Fig. 1-57. (b) For an internal feature of size datum feature, a similar perfect feature counterpart of largest size that can be inscribed within the feature of size so that it contacts the surface or surfaces. For example, the largest cylinder of perfect form or two parallel planes of perfect form at maximum separation that contacts the surface(s). This envelope is oriented relative to the appropriate datum(s). 1.3.12.1 Feature, Interrupted. A feature, (surface), that has an interruption. The keyword INTERRUPTED is placed adjacent to a size dimension, feature control frame or the datum feature symbol indicating that the specified tolerance zone, size dimension or datum feature applies through the interruption. See fig. 1-59. 1.3.13 Feature of Size, Axis Of. A straight line that coincides with the axis of the unrelated actual mating envelope of a feature of size. See Fig. 1-57. 1.3.14 Feature of Size, Center Plane Of. A plane that coincides with the center plane of the unrelated actual mating envelope of a feature of size. 1.3.15 Feature of Size, Derived Median Plane Of. An imperfect plane (abstract) that passes through the center points of all line segments bounded by the feature of size. These line segments are normal to the unrelated actual mating envelope. 1.3.16 Feature of Size, Derived Median Line Of. An imperfect line (abstract) that passes through the center points of all cross sections of the feature of size. These cross sections are October 2004

normal to the axis of the unrelated actual mating envelope. The cross section center points are determined as per ANSI B89.3.1. 1.3.17 Feature of Size. A general term used to refer to a whole or interrupted feature of size. 1.3.17.1 Whole Feature of Size. A single cylindrical or spherical surface, or circular element, or a pair of parallel surfaces or elements, that may be truncated or have an obstruction or recess that satisfies one of the following conditions: (a) A circular element associated with a diametral limit or plus and minus dimension that may have one or more obstructions or recesses. Any obstruction or recess must be less than 180 degrees of rotation around the axis. See Fig. 170 (b) A cylindrical surface associated with a diametral limit or plus and minus dimension that may be truncated or have one or more obstructions or recesses, (for example: drilled holes, keyway, partial spline shaft, partial thread, partial groove, partial bead, etc.),.

See Figs. 1-74, 1-58(f). 1.3.17.2 Feature of Size, Interrupted. A feature of size that has an interruption in one of the associated features or elements. The keyword INTERRUPTED is placed adjacent to the size dimension, tolerance or datum feature symbol indicating that the specified tolerance zone, size dimension or datum feature applies through the interruption. For circular elements and cylindrical surfaces any recess or obstruction must be less than 180 degrees of rotation around the axis. See Figs. 1-59(a) and(b), 1-60, 1-64, 1-65 and 1-74. 1.3.26.1 Size, Unrelated Actual Mating Envelope. The value of the unrelated actual mating envelope.

The length of the element is constrained by the bounds of the part surface. 1.3.41 Opposed Elements. A general term used to refer to elements as described in paragraphs 1.3.16.1 and 1.3.16.2. 1.3.41.1 Opposed Point Elements. Two (2) point elements, A and B, are opposed if the following conditions apply: Vectors originating and extending from points A and B that are coincident to a line through points A and B, and directed away from the material, must be in opposite directions and normal to the surfaces from which the point elements are derived. When both points lie on the same line element other than line end points, or planar surface other than the surface edges, they shall not be considered opposed elements. See Fig. 1-58(a). 1.3.41.2 Opposed Point and Line Element. A point element A and a line element B are opposed if the following conditions apply: Vectors originating and extending from point A and line B that are coincident to a line through point A and normal to line B, and directed away from the material, must be in opposite directions and normal to the surfaces from which the point and line elements are derived. The elements are opposed if a vector originating and extending normal from line element B intersects point A. When the point element and line element lie on the same line or both elements lie on the same planar surface, other than the surface edges, they shall not be considered opposed elements. See Fig. 1-58(b). 1.3.41.3 Opposed Point Element and Planar Surface. A point element A and a planar surface B are opposed if the following conditions apply: Vectors originating and extending from point A and surface B, that are coincident to a line through point A and normal to surface B, and directed away from the material, must be in opposite directions and normal to the surface from which the point element is derived. The
element and planar surface is opposed if a vector originating and extending normal from surface B intersects point A. When the point element and planar surface lie in the same plane, they shall not be considered opposed elements. See Fig. 1-58(c). 1.3.41.4 Opposed Parallel Line Elements. Two (2) line elements, A and B, are opposed if the following conditions apply: Vectors originating and extending normal from lines A and B in a plane containing lines A and B, and directed away from the material, must be in opposite directions and normal to the surfaces from which the line elements are derived. Two line elements are opposed if a vector originating and extending normal from line element A intersects line element B. When both lines lie on the same planar surface, other than the surface edges, they shall not be considered opposed line elements. See Figs. 1-58(d) and 1-66. 1.3.41.5 Opposed Parallel Line Element and Planar Surface. A line element A and a planar surface B are opposed if the following conditions apply: Vectors originating and extending normal from line A and planar surface B in a plane containing line A and normal to surface B, and directed away from the material, must be in opposite directions. Line element A and planar surface B are opposed if a vector originating and extending normal from line element A intersects planar surface B. If line element A lies on a planar surface perpendicular to surface B, other than the surface edge, they are not considered opposed elements. See Fig. 1-58(e). 1.3.41.6 Opposed Parallel Surfaces. Two (2) surfaces, A and B, are opposed if the following conditions apply: The two surfaces are planar. Vectors, originating and extending normal from surfaces A and B, and directed away from the material, must be in opposite directions.

Note: A Uniform Thickness/Gap Feature is not a feature of size. 1.3.44 Circular Element. The intersection of a surface of revolution and a planar section perpendicular to the axis of the surface of revolution that nominally occupies more than 180 degrees of rotation around the axis. 1.3.45 Cylindrical Surface. A single surface of revolution at a constant nominal radius containing at least one circular element that nominally occupies more than 180 degrees of rotation around an axis.

An opening that violates a part surface and does not constitute an interruption. See Fig. 1-68(a). 1.3.48 Interruption. A protrusion or opening that constitutes a complete break resulting in more than one distinct partial surface or element. (i.e., full length of a major diameter of an external spline shaft, annular groove(s), star pin, etc.). 1.3.49 Bounded Feature. The surface that results from a closed contiguous contour in a given plane projected along a vector normal to the plane. (For example: The material that remains or is removed by extruding an outline of a planar closed geometric shape in a single vector direction through material.) See Fig. 1-67(a). 1.3.50 Pattern. Two (2) or more features or features of size to which a locational geometric tolerance is applied and are grouped by one of the following methods (per Y14.5M-1994): nX, nCOAXIAL HOLES, ALL OVER, A B, nSURFACES, or INDICATED. 1.4 Fundamental Rules. Dimensioning and tolerancing shall clearly define engineering intent and shall conform to the following. a) Each dimension shall have a tolerance, except for those dimensions specifically identified as reference, maximum, minimum, or stock (commercial stock size). The tolerance may be applied directly to the dimension (or indirectly in the case of basic dimensions), indicated by a general note, or located in a supplementary block of the drawing format. See ANSI Y14.1. (b) Dimensioning and tolerancing shall be complete so there is full understanding of the charac-
C2B
teristics of each feature. Neither scaling (measuring the size of a feature directly from an engineering drawing) nor assumption of a distance or size is permitted, except as follows: Undimensioned drawings, such as loft, printed wiring, templates, and master layouts prepared on stable material, are excluded provided the necessary control dimensions are specified. (c) Each necessary dimension of an end product shall be shown. No more dimensions than those necessary for complete definition shall be given. The use of reference dimensions on a drawing should be minimized. (d) Dimensions shall be selected and arranged to suit the function and mating relationship of a part and shall not be subject to more than one interpretation. (e) The drawing should define a part without specifying manufacturing methods. Thus, only the diameter of a hole is given without indicating whether it is to be drilled, reamed, punched, or made by any other operation. However, in those instances where manufacturing, processing, quality assurance, or environmental information is essential to the definition of engineering requirements, it shall be specified on the drawing or in a document referenced on the drawing. (f) It is permissible to identify as nonmandatory certain processing dimensions that provide for finish allowance, shrink allowance, and other requirements, provided the final dimensions are given on the drawing. Nonmandatory processing dimensions shall be identified by an appropriate note, such as NONMANDATORY (MFG DATA). (g) Dimensions should be arranged to provide required information for optimum readability. Dimensions should be shown in true profile views and refer to visible outlines. (h) Wires, cables, sheets, rods, and other materials manufactured to gage or code numbers shall be specified by linear dimensions indicating the diameter or thickness. Gage or code numbers may be shown in parentheses following the dimension. (i) A 90 degree angle applies where center lines and lines depicting features are shown on a drawing at right angles and no angle is specified. See para. 2.1.1.2. (j) A 90 basic angle applies where centerlines of features in a pattern or surfaces shown at right angles on the drawing are located or defined by basic dimensions and no angle is specified.

(k) Unless otherwise specified, all dimensions are applicable at 20C (68F). Compensation may be made for measurements made at other temperatures. (l) All dimensions and tolerances apply in a free state condition. This principle does not apply to nonrigid parts as defined in paras. 2.7.1.3(b) and 6.3. (m) Unless otherwise specified, all geometric tolerances apply for full depth, length, and width of the feature. (n) Dimensions and tolerances apply only at the drawing level where they are specified. A dimension specified for a given feature on one level of drawing, (for example, a detail drawing) is not mandatory for that feature at any other level (for example, an assembly drawing). (o) Unless otherwise specified all dimensions apply after heat treat and surface treatment. (q) A zero basic dimension applies where axes, center planes or surfaces are shown congruent on a drawing. (r) Direct tolerancing methods as described in paragraph 2.2 shall not be used to locate features or features of size. Angle tolerance as described in paragraph 2.2 shall not be used to orient features of size. Note: Direct tolerancing methods may be used for Uniform thickness/gap, size and depth of counterbores, size and depth of countersinks, size and depth of spotfaces, size of chamfers, size of corner radii, thread depth, and surface intersections. The dimension origin symbol should be used when direct tolerancing is specified for the examples noted. See Fig. 1-73.
1.5 Units of Measurement. 1.5.4 Angular Units. Angular dimensions are expressed in degrees and decimal parts of a degree. See Fig. 1-1. Note: Toleranced angles using degree/minutes/seconds as shown in Figs 1-1, 21, 2-2, and 2-13 shall not be used. 1.7 Application Of Dimensions). 1.7.1 Dimension Lines. A dimension line, with its arrowheads, shows the direction and extent of a dimension. Numerals indicate the number of units of a measurement. Dimension lines shall be broken for the insertion of numerals as shown in Figs 1-2 and 1-4. . The following shall not be used as a dimension line: a center line, an extension line, a phantom line, a line that is part of the outline of the object, or a continuation of any of these lines. A dimension line is not used as an extension line. 1.7.9 Dimensions Not to Scale. Paragraph 1.7.9(b) of ASME Y14.5 shall not be used. 1.8 Dimensioning Features. 1.8.13 Spotfaces. The diameter of the spotfaced area is specified. See Fig. 1-40. Either the depth or the remaining material shall be specified. 1.9 Location Of Features. 1.9.5 Repetitive Features or Dimensions. Repetitive features or dimensions may be specified by the use of an X in conjunction with a numeral to indicate the number of places required. Where used with a basic dimension, the X shall be placed outside the basic dimension frame.

(b) Where a geometric tolerance is applied to a feature of size regardless of feature size, and no geometric form tolerance is specified, the limits of size of the individual feature of size prescribe the extent to which variations in its geometric form, as well as size, are allowed. Variation in form is allowed provided the feature of size does not extend beyond a boundary of perfect form at MMC. (c) Where a geometric tolerance of orientation is applied to a feature of size at maximum material condition and no geometric form tolerance is specified, variations in form are constrained by the MMC virtual condition of the specified orientation tolerance. Where only a geometric tolerance of position is applied at maximum material condition, variations in form are constrained by the MMC virtual condition of the specified posiPage 25 of 59
2 General Tolerancing and Related Principles

2.7 Limits Of Size. The following paragraphs define the criteria for the specified limits of a feature of size. These criteria apply solely to individual features of size as defined in Para. 1.3.11 of this addendum. 2.7.1 Individual Feature of Size. The form of an individual feature of size is controlled to the extent prescribed in the following paragraphs. (a) Where only a tolerance of size is specified, (i.e., no geometric tolerance of form, orientation, or position is specified), the limits of size of the individual feature of size prescribe the extent to which variations in its geometric form, as well as size are allowed. Variation in form is allowed

tion tolerance. Variation in form is allowed provided the feature of size does not extend beyond the MMC virtual condition of the applicable orientation or position tolerance. (d) Where a geometric tolerance of orientation is applied to a feature of size at least material condition and no geometric form tolerance is specified, variations in form are constrained by the LMC virtual condition of the specified orientation tolerance. Where only a geometric tolerance of position is applied at least material condition, variations in form are constrained by the LMC virtual condition of the specified position tolerance. Variation in form is allowed provided the feature of size does not extend beyond the LMC virtual condition of the applicable orientation or position tolerance. 2.7.1.1 Variations of Size. The actual local size of an individual whole feature of size at each cross section shall be within the specified tolerance of size except where a feature of size is truncated or has an obstruction or recess. Note: When a feature of size contains a truncation, obstruction, recess or interruption, portions of the part surface have no opposing elements and the actual local size cannot be found. Where non-opposed elements exist in a feature of size, the size and form of the surface must be within the maximum and minimum boundaries established by paragraph 2.1.1. 2.7.1.2 Variations of Form (Envelope Principle). Paragraph 2.7.1.2 of ASME Y14.5 shall not be used. 2.7.3 Relationship Between Individual Features. The limits of size do not control the orientation or location relationship between individual features. Features shown perpendicular, coaxial, or symmetrical to each other must be controlled for location or orientation to avoid incomplete drawing requirements. These controls may be specified by one of the methods given in Sections 5 and 6. If it is necessary to establish a boundary of perfect form at MMC to control the relationship between features, the following methods are used. (a) Specify a zero tolerance of orientation at MMC, including a datum reference (at MMC if applicable), to control angularity, perpendicularity, or parallelism of the feature. See para. 6.6.1.2. (b) Specify a zero positional tolerance at MMC, including a datum reference (at MMC if applica-
ble) to control coaxial or symmetrical features. See paras. 5.11.1.3 and 5.13.2.

2.8 Applicability of RFS, MMC, and LMC). Applicability of RFS, MMC, and LMC is limited to features subject to variations in size. They may be datum features or other features whose axes or center planes are controlled by geometric tolerances. In the case of straightness covered in paras. 6.4.1.1.2 and 6.4.1.1.3, it is the derived median line and the derived median plane, rather than the axis and center plane that are controlled. In all cases, the following practices apply for indicating RFS, MMC, and LMC: (a) All Applicable Geometric Tolerances (Rule #2). RFS applies, with respect to the individual tolerance, datum reference, or both, where no modifying symbol is specified. MMC or LMC must be specified on the drawing where it is required. Note: Circular runout and total runout, are applicable only on an RFS basis and cannot be modified to MMC or LMC. 2.8.2 Effect of MMC. Where a geometric tolerance is applied on an MMC basis, the allowable tolerance is dependent on the unrelated actual mating size of the considered feature of size. The tolerance is limited to the specified value if the feature of size is produced at MMC. Where the unrelated actual mating size of the feature of size has departed from MMC, an increase in the tolerance is allowed equal to the amount of such departure. The total permissible variation in the specific geometric characteristic is maximum when the unrelated actual mating envelope of the feature of size is equal to LMC value. Likewise, referencing a datum feature of size on an MMC basis means the datum is the axis or center plane of the feature of size at the MMC limit or virtual condition. Where the unrelated actual mating size of a primary datum feature of size, or the related actual mating size of a secondary or tertiary datum feature of size has departed from MMC value, a deviation is allowed between its axis or center plane and the axis or center plane of the datum. 2.8.3 Effect of Zero Tolerance at MMC. Where a tolerance of position or orientation is applied on a zero tolerance at MMC basis, the tolerance is totally dependent on the unrelated actual mating size of the considered feature. No tolerance of position or orientation is allowed if the feature is produced at its MMC limit of size. Where the unrelated actual mating size of the considered feature has departed from MMC, a tolerance is allowed equal to the amount of such departure. The total permissible variation in position or ori Copyright 2004 General Motors Corporation All Rights Reserved
C2B
entation is maximum when the feature is at LMC, unless a maximum is specified. See Figs. 6-41 and 6-42. 2.8.4 Effect of LMC. Where a positional tolerance is applied on an LMC basis, the allowable tolerance is dependent on the related actual mating size of the considered feature of size. The tolerance is limited to the specified value if the feature of size is produced at its LMC limit of size. Where the related actual mating size of the feature of size has departed from LMC, an increase in the tolerance is allowed equal to the amount of such departure. The total permissible variation in position is maximum when the feature of size is at MMC. Likewise, referencing a datum feature of size on an LMC basis means the datum is the axis or center plane of the feature of size at the LMC limit. Where the unrelated actual mating size of a primary datum feature of size, or the related actual mating size of a secondary or tertiary datum feature of size has departed from LMC, a deviation is allowed between its axis or center plane and the axis or center plane of the datum. 2.8.5 Effect of Zero Tolerance at LMC. Where a tolerance of position or orientation is applied on a zero tolerance at LMC basis, the tolerance is totally dependent on the size of the considered feature. No tolerance of position or orientation is allowed if the feature is produced at its LMC limit of size where the unrelated actual mating size of the considered feature has departed from LMC, a tolerance is allowed equal to the amount of such departure. The total permissible variation in position or orientation is maximum when the feature is at MMC unless a maximum is specified. See Figs. 5-13, 5-14, and 6-42.

2.15 Radius. 2.15.2 Controlled Radius Tolerance. A controlled radius symbol CR creates a tolerance zone defined by two arcs (the minimum and maximum radii) that are tangent to the adjacent surfaces. When specifying a controlled radius, the part contour within the crescent-shaped tolerance zone must be a fair curve without reversals. Additionally, radii taken at all points on the part contour shall neither be smaller than the specified minimum limit nor larger than the maximum limit. See Fig. 2-19. If a controlled radius is specified, the surface finish requirements of the applicable radius must be noted. 2.16 Statistical Tolerancing. Statistical tolerancing as described in Para. 2.16 and associated sub-paragraphs of ASME Y14.5 shall not be used. 2.17 Uniform Thickness/Gap Tolerance. A Uniform Thickness/Gap tolerance specifies that the minimum and maximum actual Thickness/Gap value, as defined in (a) and (b) below, must be
within the specified Uniform Thickness/Gap tolerance limits. (a) For a uniform thickness feature (external), the maximum actual thickness value is the minimum separation between two points a fixed distance apart that the entire uniform thickness feature will pass through. The minimum actual thickness value is the minimum distance between the surfaces of a uniform thickness feature. See Fig. 2-24, 2-25 and 2-26. (b) For a uniform gap feature (internal), the minimum actual gap value is the maximum separation between two points a fixed distance apart that the entire uniform gap feature will pass over. The maximum actual gap value is the maximum distance between the surfaces of a uniform gap feature. See Fig. 2-23.

3 Symbology
3.3 Symbol Construction. 3.3.2 Datum Feature Symbol. The symbolic means of indicating a datum feature consists of a capital letter enclosed in a square frame and a leader line extending from the frame to the concerned feature, terminating with a triangle. The triangle may be filled or not filled. See Fig. 3-2. Letters of the alphabet (except I, O, and Q) are used as datum identifying letters. Each datum feature of a part requiring identification shall be assigned a different letter. When datum features requiring identification on a drawing are so numerous as to exhaust the single alpha series, the double alpha series (AA through AZ, BA through BZ, etc.) shall be used and enclosed in a rectangular frame. Where the same datum feature symbol is repeated to identify the same feature in other locations of a drawing, it need not be identified as reference. The datum feature symbol is applied to the concerned feature surface outline, extension line, dimension line, or feature control frame as follows: (a) Placed on the outline of a feature surface, or on an extension line of the feature outline, clearly October 2004

C2B
(f) placed above or below and attached to the feature control frame when the feature (or group of features) controlled is the datum axis or datum center plane. See Figs. 3-5 and 3-23. (g) placed on an extension line parallel to the center plane and separated from the size dimension, when only one plane of a cylindrical feature of size is the desired datum. See Fig. 3-28 for RFS application and Fig. 3-29 for MMC application. (h) the use of a dashed radial leader line, as in Fig. 4-48 indicates that the datum feature is on the far (hidden) surface. 3.3.18 All Around Symbol. The symbolic means of indicating that a tolerance applies to surfaces all around the part is a circle located at the junction of the leader from the feature control frame. All around the part means all around the outline, only in the view in which the symbol is pointing to the outline. See Fig. 3-17. 3.3.24 Unequal Bilateral Symbol. The symbolic means of indicating that a tolerance applies either unilaterally or unequally disposed about the true profile. This symbol is used with Profile of a Line or Profile of a Surface. See Figs. 3-30 and 6-55. 3.3.25 Uniform Thickness/Gap Symbols. The symbolic means of indicating that a uniform Thickness/Gap tolerance applies. For a thickness feature (external), the notation THK follows a direct tolerance specification. See Fig. 2-24, 2-25 and Fig. 2-26. For a gap feature (internal), the notation GAP follows a direct tolerance specification. See Fig. 2-23.
3.5 Feature Control Frame Placement. The feature control frame is related to the considered feature by one of the following methods: (a) locating the frame below or attached to a leader-directed callout or dimension pertaining to the feature. See Fig. 3-25. (b) running a leader from the frame to the feature; See Fig. 3-25. (c) attaching a side or an end of the frame to an extension line from the feature, provided it is a plane surface; See Fig. 3-25. (d) attaching a side or an end of the frame to an extension of the dimension line pertaining to a feature of size. See Fig. 3-25. (e) locating the frame in a note or in a chart that clearly identifies the feature(s) to which the frame applies.

GM ENGINEERING STANDARDS 4 Datum Referencing

4.2 Immobilization Of Part. Where features of a part have been identified as datum features, the part is oriented and immobilized relative to the three mutually perpendicular planes of the datum reference frame in a selected order of precedence. This in turn makes the geometric relationships that exist between the features measurable. A true geometric counterpart of a feature used to establish a datum may be: (a) a plane; (b) a maximum material condition boundary (MMC concept); (c) a least material condition boundary (LMC concept); (d) a virtual condition boundary; (e) An unrelated actual mating envelope for a primary datum, or a related actual mating envelope for a secondary or tertiary datum; (f) a mathematically defined contour. 4.3 Datum Features. 4.3.1 Temporary and Permanent Datum. Features. Selected datum features of in-process parts, such as castings, forgings, machinings, or fabrications, may be used temporarily to establish permanent datum features. It is recommended that such temporary datum features not be subsequently removed by manufacturing processes. 4.4 Specifying Datum Features In An Order Of Precedence. Datum features must be specified in an order of precedence to position a part properly on the datum reference frame. Figure 4-2 illustrates a part where the datum features are plane surfaces. The desired order of precedence is indicated by entering the appropriate datum feature reference letters, from left to right, in the feature control frame. In fig. 4-2(a), the datum features are identified as Surfaces D, E, and F. These surfaces are most important to the design and function of the part, as illustrated by Fig. 42(b). Surfaces D, E, and F are the primary, secondary, and tertiary datum features, respectively, since they appear in that order in the feature control frame. 4.4.2 Parts With Cylindrical Datum Features. A cylindrical datum feature is associated with two theoretical planes of a datum reference frame intersecting at right angles on the datum axis when the cylindrical datum is primary; or secondary while the primary datum is a plane perpendicular to the cylindrical datum . The datum of a cylindrical surface is the axis of the true geometOctober 2004
C2B
ric counterpart of the datum feature (For example, unrelated actual mating envelope for RFS primary applications or related actual mating envelope for RFS secondary or tertiary applications), and simulated by the axis of a cylinder in the processing equipment. The axis of the true geometric counterpart serves as the origin of measurement from which other features of the part are located. See Figs. 4-5, 4-11, and 4-12. 4.5 Establishing Datums. 4.5.1 Datum Features Not Subject to Size Variations. Where a nominally flat surface is specified as a datum feature, the corresponding datum is simulated by a plane contacting points of that surface. See Fig. 4-10. The extent of contact depends on whether the surface is a primary, a secondary, or a tertiary datum feature. See para. 4.4. If irregularities on the surface of a primary or secondary datum feature are such that the part is unstable (that is, it wobbles) when brought into contact with the corresponding surface of a fixture, the part may be adjusted to an optimum position, if necessary, to simulate the datum. See para. 4.3.3 (a) Datum feature non-opposed to a datum axis. Where a feature is referenced as a secondary (or tertiary) datum and is non-opposed (offset) to the datum axis (or center plane), the datum feature simulator is constrained by the basic dimensions of the drawing. See Fig. 4-40(a). (b) Datum feature opposed to a datum axis. Where a feature is referenced as a secondary (or tertiary) datum and is opposed to the datum axis (or center plane), the datum feature simulator is oriented relative to the higher ranking datums and is movable to accommodate allowable variation in the location of the datum feature. See Fig. 4-40(b). 4.5.3 Specifying Datum Features RFS. Where a datum feature of size is applied on an RFS basis, the datum is established by physical contact between the feature surface(s) and surface(s) of the processing equipment. A machine element that is variable in size (such as a chuck, mandrel, vise, or centering device) is used to simulate a true geometric counterpart of the feature and to establish the datum axis or center plane. (a) Primary Datum Feature Diameter RFS. The simulated datum is the axis of the true geometric counterpart of the datum feature. The true geometric counterpart (or unrelated actual mating envelope) is the smallest circumscribed (for an external feature) or largest inscribed (for Page 35 of 59
C2B
an internal feature) perfect cylinder that contacts the datum feature surface. See Figs. 4-11 and 4-12. (b) Primary Datum Feature Width RFS. The simulated datum is the center plane of the true geometric counterpart of the datum feature. The true geometric counterpart (or unrelated actual mating envelope) is two parallel planes at minimum separation (for an external feature) or maximum separation (for an internal feature) that contact the corresponding surfaces of the datum feature. See Figs. 4-13 and 4-14. (c) Secondary Datum Feature RFS Diameter or Width. For both external and internal features, the secondary datum (axis or center plane) is established in the same manner as indicated in (a) and (b) above with an additional requirement: The contacting cylinder or parallel planes of the true geometric counterpart must be oriented to the primary datum (usually a plane) that is, the related actual mating envelope relative to the primary datum. Datum B in Fig. 415 illustrates this principle for diameters; the same principle applies for widths. (d) Tertiary Datum Feature Diameter or Width RFS. For both external and internal features, the tertiary datum (axis or center plane) is established in the same manner as indicated in (c) above with an additional requirement: The contacting cylinder or parallel planes must be oriented in relation to both the primary and the secondary datum that is, the related actual mating envelope relative to the primary and secondary datum. The tertiary datum feature may be aligned with a datum axis as in Fig. 4-15 or offset from a plane of the datum reference frame. (e) Datum feature of size (RFS) non-opposed to a datum axis. Where a feature of size is referenced at RFS as a secondary (or tertiary) datum and is not opposed to the datum axis or center plane, the true geometric counterpart is constrained by the basic dimension. See Fig. 441(a). (f) Datum feature of size (RFS) opposed to a datum axis. Where a feature of size is referenced at RFS as a secondary (or tertiary) datum and is opposed to the datum axis or center plane, the true geometric counterpart is oriented relative to the higher ranking datums and is movable to accommodate allowable variation in the location of the feature of size. See Fig. 441(b).
4.5.4 Specifying Datum Features at MMC. Where a datum feature of size is applied on an MMC basis, machine and gaging elements in the processing equipment that remain constant in size may be used to simulate a true geometric counterpart of the feature and to establish the datum. In each case, the size of the true geometric counterpart is determined by the specified MMC limit of size of the datum feature, or its MMC virtual condition, where applicable. (a) Datum feature of size (MMC) non-opposed to a datum axis. Where a feature of size is referenced at MMC as a secondary (or tertiary) datum and is not opposed to the datum axis or center plane, the true geometric counterpart is constrained by the basic dimension. See Fig. 442(a). (b) Datum feature of size (MMC) opposed to a datum axis. Where a feature of size is referenced at MMC as a secondary (or tertiary) datum and is opposed to the datum axis or center plane, the true geometric counterpart is constrained by the basic dimensions. See Fig. 442(b). 4.5.5 Specifying Datum Features at LMC. The method in paragraph 4.5.5 of ASME Y14.5 shall not be used. 4.5.6.2 Surface Primary. In Fig. 4-18(c), surface B is the primary datum feature; diameter A is the secondary datum feature and RFS is applied. The datum axis is the axis of the smallest circumscribed cylinder that contacts diameter A and is perpendicular to the datum plane that is, the related actual mating envelope of a diameter that is perpendicular to datum plane B. In addition to size variations, this cylinder encompasses any variation in perpendicularity between diameter A and surface B, the primary datum feature. 4.5.6.3 Cylindrical Feature at MMC Secondary. In Fig. 4-18(d), surface B is the primary datum feature; diameter A is the secondary datum feature and MMC is applied. The datum axis is the axis of a virtual condition cylinder of fixed size that is perpendicular to the datum plane B. Variations in the size and perpendicularity of datum feature A are permitted to occur within this cylindrical boundary. Furthermore, as the related actual mating envelope of datum feature A departs from its maximum size, a displacement of its axis relative to the datum axis is allowed. See para. 5.1.2.

4.5.7.1 Simulation of a Single Datum Plane. Fig. 4-20 and Fig. 4-43 are examples of a single datum plane simulated, by simultaneously contacting the high points of two surfaces. Identification of two features to establish a single datum plane may be required where separation of the features is caused by an obstruction, such as in Fig. 4-20, or by a recess (for example, a slot) of sufficient width. For controlling co-planarity of these surfaces, see Para. 6.5.6. 4.5.7.3 Specifying a Plane And a Feature of Size as a Single Datum Reference. Where it is desired to use a surface and a feature of size as a single datum reference, the method shown in Fig. 4-46 may be used. 4.5.13 Specifying Parallel Offset Datum Features. Where it is desired to use parallel offset planar features to establish a datum, the method shown in Fig. 4-44 may be used. 4.5.14 Specifying Angled Datum Features Simultaneously. Where it is desired to use two angled features to establish a single datum, the method shown in Fig. 4-45 may be used. 4.6 Datum Targets. 4.6.1.3 Datum Target Areas. The datum target area may be indicated by section lines inside a phantom outline of the desired shape, with controlling basic dimensions added. The diameter of circular areas is given in the upper half of the datum target symbol. See Figs. 4-29(a) and 451. Where it becomes impracticable to delineate a circular target area, the method of indication shown in Fig. 4-29(b) may be used. 4.6.2 Datum Target Dimensions. When dimensions are used to define the location of datum targets, they shall be defined with basic dimensions. Basic dimensions are omitted when the true geometric counterpart of datum targets are movable. When the true geometric counterpart of a datum target is movable, a note describing the movement of the targets shall be specified. See Fig. 4-51. 4.6.7 Datums Established from Datum Targets. The datum feature symbol shall be attached only to identifiable datum features. Where datums are established by the true geometric counterpart of datum targets, the datum planes may be identified as shown in Fig. 4-51. 4.7 Restraining Datum Features. It may be desirable during dimensional measurement to restrain a part or assembly to simulate its function or interaction with other parts or assemblies. In
C2B
these cases, geometric tolerances apply with the specified datum feature(s) referenced in feature control frame(s) restrained to the nominally designed condition. This section establishes the principles and methods for defining and referencing restrained datum features. 4.7.2 Specifying The Restrained Requirement As Default. MAKE BOLDTo invoke the restrained requirement, a note similar to the ones shown in Figs. 4-47 and 4-48, shall be shown on the drawing. 4.7.4 Specifying The Unrestrained Requirement For A Particular Datum(s) When The Restrained Condition Is Noted. Where an individual orientation or location tolerance is applied to a feature and the default restrained requirement is noted, the free state symbol may be used to indicate that the restrained requirement does not apply to particular datum features. The free state symbol is specified following the datum reference and any modifiers in the feature control frame. The part may or may not contact the unclamped datum target simulator when the datum targets define the datum plane. The part surface in the area of the unrestrained datum target shall be within the tolerance specified for that surface. See Figs. 4-47 and 4-49. 4.7.5 Restraining Parts Using Features Of Size. It may be necessary to use multiple features of size to establish datum planes when the restrained requirement is invoked. In order for the datum features to engage the datum feature simulators, forces may be applied in accordance with the specified restraint requirement to flex or deform the part. See Fig. 4-50. Note: The position tolerance shown in Fig. 4-50 for datum feature B (pattern of four holes) is not used to measure the free state location of the holes. It is used to establish the virtual condition pins that will restrain the part in an installed condition. 4.7.7 Contacting Datum Simulators. When restraint is applied, all datum features shall contact all datum feature simulators, unless otherwise specified. Full contact of the entire datum feature with the datum feature simulators not required, unless otherwise specified. 4.7.8 Use Of Material Condition Modifiers with Restrained Datums. When using features of size as datum features, consideration must be given to the material condition (MMC or RFS) at which the datum features apply. When the feature control frame specifies a secondary or tertiFormatted: Font: Bold

ary datum feature of size is to apply RFS, the part is placed on the primary datum surface or datum targets, positively positioned on the RFS datum features of size and then clamped. In the case of secondary or tertiary datum features of size specified to apply at MMC, the part may be moved on the gage within the allowable gage looseness (difference between the virtual condition boundary and the actual mating size) to optimize the part location and then clamped. 4.7.9 Pattern of Features as A Secondary or Tertiary Datum Feature. When applying GD&T to some types of parts, such as flexible plastics, i.e., fascias, shields, or covers, it may be necessary to utilize a pattern of features to establish a secondary (ASME Y14.5M-1994 Para. 4.5.8) or tertiary plane when the restrained requirement is invoked. In Fig. 4-48 the primary datum establishes the part in the Z (height) plane, datum feature B establishes the X (length) and Y (width) planes. Because the part is not rigid, it is necessary to provide additional datum features in the X (length) direction. Two slots, which are both called datum feature C are used for this additional support. See Fig. 4-48. 4.8 Restraining Conditions. Several considerations must be made relative to restraining a part to verify tolerances. 4.8.1 Application Of Force On A Restrained Datum. The amount of force used to restrain a part shall be one of the following: (a) the amount required RESTRAINING the part on the datum feature simulators compliant to para 4.7.7. (b) The amount of force specified is equal to the force the part will be subjected to in its installed condition. In such cases, the range of accept-
able force (clamp load, torque, specified. When this method is straining force shall be shown on specified in another document. specified in another document, shall be noted on the product ASME Y14.5M Fig. 6-54. etc.) shall be used, the rethe drawing or If the force is the document drawing. See
4.8.2 Location, Direction and Size of Restraint on A Restrained Datum Feature. The location, direction and size of restraint shall be shown on the drawing or specified in another document. If the location, direction and size of restraint is specified in another document, the document shall be noted on the product drawing. Additional restraints may not be used unless specifically designated on the drawing. (a) When datum targets are specified, the location and direction is applied over each datum target, normal to the datum and the same size and shape of the datum target unless otherwise specified. (b) When the entire surface is specified as the datum feature, the location and direction is applied over the datum feature, normal to the datum and the same size and shape of the datum feature unless otherwise specified. 4.8.3 Sequence Of Restraints On A Restrained Datum Reference Frame. The sequence of applying restraints shall be specified in the following manner: (a) On the drawing with a note. (b) Described in another document, with reference to the other document on the drawing.

one-half the difference between its actual mating size and MMC size. Note: If a functional gage is used to check the part, the shift of the axis of the datum feature is automatically accommodated. However, if open set-up inspection methods are used to check the location of the feature pattern relative to the axis of the datum features actual mating envelope, this must be taken into account. Since the axis of the datum features actual mating envelope must serve as the origin of measurements for the pattern of features, the features are therefore viewed as if they, as a group, had been displaced relative to the axis of the datum features actual mating envelope. This relative shift of the pattern of features, as a group, with respect to the axis of the datum feature does not effect the positional tolerance of the features relative to one another within the pattern. Note: The actual mating envelope would be unrelated for a primary datum feature and related for a secondary or tertiary datum feature. 5.3.3 Zero Positional Tolerance at MMC. In the preceding explanation, a positional tolerance of some magnitude is specified for the location of features. The application of MMC permits the tolerance to exceed the value specified, provided features are within size limits, and the feature locations are such as to make the part acceptable. However, rejection of usable parts can occur where these features are actually located on or close to their true positions, but produced to a size smaller than the specified minimum (outside of limits). The principle of positional tolerancing at MMC can be extended in applications where it is necessary to provide greater tolerance within functional limits than would otherwise be allowed. This is accomplished by adjusting the minimum size limit of a hole to the absolute minimum required for insertion of an applicable fastener located precisely at true position, and specifying a zero positional tolerance at MMC. In this case, the positional tolerance allowed is totally dependent on the unrelated actual mating size of the considered feature, as explained in para. 2.8.3. 5.3.3.1 Example of Zero Positional Tolerance at MMC. Figure 5-10 shows a drawing of the same part with a zero positional tolerance at MMC specified. Note that the maximum size limit of the clearance holes remains the same, but the minimum was adjusted to correspond with a 14 mm diameter fastener. This results in an increase in the size tolerance for the clearPage 50 of 59
ance holes, the increase being equal to the conventional positional tolerance specified in Fig. 59. Although the positional tolerance specified in Fig. 5-10 is zero at MMC, the positional tolerance allowed is in direct proportion to the actual clearance hole size as shown by the following tabulation:
Clearance Hole Diameter (Feature Unrelated Actual Mating Size) 14 14.1 14.2 14.25 14.3 14.4 14.5 Positional Tolerance Diameter Allowed 0 0.1 0.2 0.25 0.3 0.4 0.5
5.3.4 RFS as Related to Positional Tolerancing. In certain cases, the design or function of a part may require the positional tolerance, datum reference, or both, to be maintained regardless of the features unrelated actual mating sizes. RFS, where applied to the positional tolerance of circular features, requires the axis of each feature to be located within the specified positional tolerance regardless of the size of the feature. This requirement imposes a closer control of the features involved and introduces complexities in verification. 5.11 Coaxiality Controls. 5.11.1.7 Coaxial Relationships Using Positional Tolerance Without a Datum Reference. Where a part has two or more coaxial diameters, and only the interrelationship between the features of size is controlled with position tolerance, no datum references are specified. If the position tolerance is applied RFS, the axes of the unrelated actual mating envelopes must be within the specified cylindrical tolerance zone simultaneously. If the position tolerance is applied MMC, the feature surfaces must be within the coaxial virtual conditions simultaneously. See Figs. 5-63 and 5-64. 5.11.1.8 Symmetrical Relationships Using Positional Tolerance Without a Datum Reference. Where a part has two or more coaxial diameters, and only the interrelationship between the features of size is controlled with position tolerance, no datum references are specified. If the position tolerance is applied RFS, the October 2004
axes of the unrelated actual mating envelopes must be within the specified cylindrical tolerance zone simultaneously. If the position tolerance is applied MMC, the feature surfaces must be within the coaxial virtual conditions simultaneously. 5.12 Concentricity. 5.12.1 Concentricity Tolerancing. Paragraph 5.12.1 of ASME Y14.5 shall not be use. 5.12.2 Difference Between Coaxiality Controls and Concentricity. Paragraph 5.12.2 of ASME Y14.5 shall not be used. 5.13 Positional Tolerancing For Symmetrical Relationships. Positional tolerancing for symmetrical relationships is that condition where the center plane of the unrelated actual mating envelope of one or more features is congruent with axis or center plane of a datum feature within specified limits. MMC, IMC, or RFS modifiers may be specified to apply to both the tolerance and the datum feature.

5.14 Symmetry Tolerancing to Control the Median Points of Opposed or Correspondingly Located Elements of Features. Paragraph 5.14 of ASME Y14.5 shall not be used. 5.16 Position Of A Cylindrical Part With Bends. To constrain the boundary of a nominally cylindrical part with bends, such as a tube, hose or rod, the position symbol is used in the feature control frame with the between symbol specified beneath. An MMC modifier must be specified in the tolerance portion of the feature control frame. The collective effects of the MMC condition of the stated size tolerance and the associated position tolerance define the boundary. The tolerance applies to the extent defined by the between specification including the bend areas. When datums are not specified, the tolerance specification controls the form and the interrelationship between the applicable features. When datums are specified, the form is constrained by the boundary established by the position or orientation control. See Fig. 5-65.

Figure 5-65 Position Tolerancing Of A Nominally Cylindrical Feature Of Size With Bends (b) Unilaterally and unequally disposed profiles may be specified in a feature control frame with a leader directed to the surface. When specifying a profile of a surface tolerance unilaterally or unequal disposed bilaterally, the Unequal Bilateral symbol is added to the feature control frame following the tolerance value. A second value is added following the Unequal Bilateral symbol to indicate the amount of the tolerance that applies outside of the material. See Figs. 3-30 and 6-55. (In the following figures of Y14.5 the method of specifying unilateral or unequal bilateral profile tolerancing is replaced by the method described in this addendum: Figs: 6-11, 6-15, 6-16, 6-18.)
6 Tolerances of Form, Profile, Orientation, and Runout

6.5 Profile Control. 6.5.1 Profile Tolerancing. The profile tolerance specifies a uniform boundary along the true profile within which the elements of the surface must lie. It is used to control form or combinations of size, form, orientation, and location. Where used as a refinement of size, the profile tolerance must be contained within the size limits. Profile tolerances are specified as follows. (a) An appropriate view or section is drawn showing the desired basic profile.

(c) Where a profile tolerance applies all around the profile of a part, the symbol used to designate all around is placed on the leader from the feature control frame. See Fig. 6-12. Where segments of a profile have different tolerances, the extent of each profile tolerance may be indicated by the use of reference letters to identify the extremities or limits of each requirement. See Fig. 6-13. Similarly, if some segments of the profile are controlled by a profile tolerance and other segments by individually toleranced dimensions, the extent of the profile tolerance must be indicated. See Fig. 6-14. 6.5.5.1 Boundary Control for a Noncylindrical Feature. Profile tolerancing may be combined with positional tolerancing where it is necessary to control the boundary of a noncylindrical feature. See Fig 6-56. In this example, the basic dimensions and the profile tolerance establish a tolerance zone to control the shape and size of the feature. Additionally, the positional tolerance establishes a theoretical boundary shaped identically to the basic profile. For an internal feature, the boundary equals the MMC size of the profile minus the positional tolerance, and the entire feature surface must lie outside the boundary. For an external feature, the boundary equals the MMC size of the profile plus the positional tolerance, and the entire feature surface must lie within the boundary. To invoke this concept, the term BOUNDARY is placed beneath the positional tolerance feature control frame. Geometric tolerances applied as a boundary control for a noncylindrical feature (i.e., position or orientation controls) may be specified with a single leader line as shown in Fig. 6-56. 6.5.9.1.1 Explanation of Composite Control. Each feature is located from specified datums by basic dimensions. Datum referencing in the upper segment of a composite profile feature control frame serves to locate the feature profile locating tolerance zone relative to specified datums. See Figs. 6-25 and 6-26. The lower segment serves to establish the limits of form and/or size. When datums are specified in the lower segment, the tolerance zone is oriented to the datums. See Figs. 6-25 and 6-26. The tolerance values represent the distance between two boundaries disposed about the true profile as defined by the basic dimensions and respective applicable datums. The actual surface of the controlled feature must lie within both the profile locating tolerance zone and the profile size/form/orientation tolerance zone.
6.6 Orientation Tolerances. 6.6.2 Angularity. Angularity is the condition of a surface, center plane, or axis at a specified angle from a datum plane or axis. 6.6.2.1 Angularity Tolerance. An angularity tolerance specifies one of the following: (a) a tolerance zone defined by two parallel planes at the specified basic angle from one or more datum planes or a datum axis, within, which the surface or center plane of the considered feature must lie. See Fig. 6-27. (b) a tolerance zone defined by two parallel planes at the specified basic angle from one or more datum planes or a datum axis, within, which the axis of the considered feature must lie. See Fig. 6-28. (c) A cylindrical tolerance zone at the specified basic angle from one or two datum planes, or a datum axis within which the axis of the considered feature of size must lie. See Fig. 6-29 (d) a tolerance zone defined by two parallel lines at the specified basic angle from a datum plane or axis, within, which the line element of the surface must lie. 6.8 Free State Variation. 6.8.1 Specifying Geometric Tolerances on Features Subject to Free State Variation. Where tolerance is applied to a feature in the free state, specify the maximum allowable free state variation with an appropriate feature control frame. See Fig. 6-53. The free state symbol may be placed within the feature control frame, following the tolerance and any modifiers, to clarify a free state requirement on a drawing containing restrained feature notes, or to separate a free state requirement from associated features having restrained requirements. See Figs. 3-18 and 6-54. 6.8.2 Specifying Geometric Tolerances on Features to Be Restrained When a general restraint note is specified on the drawing, all geometric tolerances shall be within stated values unless otherwise specified.

GM ENGINEERING STANDARDS Appendix B Formulas For Positional Tolerancing

B1 General The purpose of this Appendix is to present formulas for determining the required positional tolerances or the required sizes of mating features to ensure that parts will assemble. The formulas are valid for all types of features or patterns of features and will give a no interference, no clearance fit when features are at maximum material condition with their locations in the extreme of positional tolerance. Consideration must be given for additional geometric conditions that could affect functions not accounted for in the following formulas. When calculating positional tolerancing, conditions such as fastener straightness, thread to shank run out, and projected fastener length, need to be considered to ensure assembly.
