Geometric Dimensioning and Tolerancing
Open Description of Variables Used in Calculator
This calculator will calculate the required field compensating for the effects of the fastener projection. Calculations assume a line-line case at tolerance and feature-of-size maximum departure.
Notes:
- Units may be given as inches, mm, meters or whatever.
- Units DO NEED to be consistant (e.g. all inches or all mm).
