Geo-Metrics III: The Application of Geometric Dimensioning and Tolerancing Techniques (Using the Customary Inch Systems): The Application of Geometric . Application of Geometric Tolerancing Vol 1

Lowell W. Foster, expert on geometric dimensioning and tolerancing (GD&T) and chairman of the U.S. National and ISO standards committees, updates his bestselling book to give readers the definitive guide to the new ANSI standard. This up-to-date information will help engineers and designers implement design and product requirements throughout the cycle- from design to manufacture to assembly-using universal standards and practices that result in reduced cost and high-quality products. With the new standard, engineers can state design requirements of “function and relationship of part” features which they heretofore envisioned, but could not state in the drawing. Available in inch and metric versions.

Lowell W. Foster is president and director of Lowell W. Foster Associates, Inc., a consulting firm serving clients around the world in technical management, consulting, and training matters. He continues his life-long involvement in all national and international standards committee developments for geometric dimensioning and tolerancing.

His distinguished career spans more than 45 years, from his beginning as a tool designer through various technical and management positions in the areas of product design, process, production, quality control, and standardization. He has been deeply involved in numerous boards and standards committees on engineering drawing and related practices, and has received several awards and honors from schools, organizations, and colleagues.
