Feature
A feature is a general term applied to a
physical portion of a part, such as a surface,
hole, slot, boss, tab, etc.

Basic Dimension
A theoretically perfect, linear or angular
dimension, which serves to specify
(1) The form, and the orientation and location of
tolerance zones relative to one another and
relative to specified DRFs
(2) The mutual orientation and location of
datums, and
(3) The mutual orientation and location of datum
targets.

Perpendicularity
Angularity
A surface, median plane or axis at a specified
angle (other than 0 or 90) from a datum plane or
axis. Can have more than one datum specified.
Parallelism
The condition of a surface equidistant at all
points from a datum plane, or an axis
equidistant along its length to a datum axis.

Total Runout
Total Runout
Total runout controls cumulative variation of
circularity, cylindricity, straightness, coaxiality,
angularity, taper, and profile when it is applied
to surfaces constructed around a datum axis.
Total Runout
When it is applied to surfaces constructed at
right angles to a datum axis, it controls
perpendicularity (and thereby flatness).

Virtual Condition
A constant "worst case" imaginary boundary
defined by the collective effects of a feature's
size, geometric tolerance, and material
condition.

Resultant Condition
A variable "worst case" boundary, opposite the

actual mating envelope and its location
