Description: This self-contained book is designed to be the only manual any reader will need to learn the skills necessary to read manufacturing blueprints. Beginning with the basics of blueprint reading, the book presents each topic in a clear, straightforward manner so that no prior knowledge is necessary in order to understand the subject. The charts, tables, and glossary of terminology provided are all the source material a reader needs to successfully complete the course work. Chapter 13, which deals with Geometric Tolerances and Chapter 14, which deals with Location Tolerances, are completely rewritten to reflect the current ASME Y-14.5M-1994 Standard on Geometric Dimensioning and Tolerancing. Unit 11, dealing with Metric Dimensions, has been updated, reflecting ISO requirements as well as the correct metric specifications dealing with dimensions and tolerances. Each new aspect of print reading is first introduced and fully explained before it is presented on prints.
