About the Course

Description

Blueprints and GD&T 2 This online, self-paced, learn-by-doing course builds on foundational blueprint reading skills with a deeper dive into Geometric Dimensioning and Tolerancing (GD&T). This hands-on course introduces advanced concepts such as Feature Control Frames and material condition modifiers—Maximum Material Condition, Least Material Condition, and Regardless of Feature Size—along with how these impact bonus tolerance calculations. Students explore key blueprint standards (ASME, ANSI, ISO), understand datum systems and Degrees of Freedom, and apply the 3-2-1 Rule. The course also covers geometric controls like angularity, runout, and surface finish, equipping learners with the technical and practical skills needed for precision roles in modern manufacturing.
