What is GD&T?


ASME Y14.5


GD&T is an international language used in engineering drawings and symbols to accurately describe the size, shape, orientation, and location of part features. It also encourages designers to define a part based on how it functions in the final product or assembly.


It is an exact language that allows designers to explain in detail what they want to express in a drawing, thus improving product designs and reducing costs.


People working in the process and manufacturing area must use language and symbology to interpret the design intent and to determine the best manufacturing method. Quality control and inspection must use GD&T language to determine appropriate tracking and verification of parts.
