DIMENSIONING AND TOLERANCING PRINCIPLES
FOR GAGES AND FIXTURES.
1. GENERAL
1.1. Scope
This Standard presents the dasign practices for dimen-
stoning and tolerancing of gages and fiatures used for
the verification of maximum material condition {MMIC}
stze envelopes and viral condition boundaries gener
ated by geometnc tolerances controlled at MMC, and
datum features controlled at maximum material bound-
ary (MMB). Some examples of gages and fixtures used
to inspect workpteces using mgardloss. of foature size
(RFS) and regardless of material boundary (RMB) are
shown in Nonmandatory Appendix C
‘Mast of these practices focus on the design of recetver-
type gages that collect attribute data when used for the
Seen esipscecheciecel licen!
In accordance with ASME Y14 5-209, Some
Of fataring workploes for the collection of verses
data are shown, These practices represent examples of
product definitions allowed by ASME Y14.5, Since
ASME YI45 is nat a standard, ASME YI4.43
shows the practical embodiment ofthe theory displayed
in ASME Y145 by illustrating how the workpieces can
be fixtured and gaged for tolerance verification,
For gaging and fixturing principles and practices, see
sectionsd through 8 and Mandatory Appendices and IL.

1.3 Figures
‘The figures in this Standard are in accordance with
ASME Vid 53-2000. The figures are imtended only as llas-
trations to aid the user in understanding the design
principles and methods of gaging and fxturing design
described in the text. Figures may show added detail
for emphasis orbe incompleteby intent. Numerical val-
tues of dimensions and tolerances are illustrative only
