Online Fundamentals of GD&T
Very helpful

I want to let you know that I have completed the Fundamentals class and I have found it to be
very helpful. As an engineering manager I don’t produce drawings every day, but I do review
drawings. I was pleased with seeing how much I knew about the topic, but I was equally pleased

20. What is a "Material Condition Modifier?"
Answer Provided: d) A symbol (or lack thereof) placed in a feature control frame that indicates
how much, or if, any extra geometric tolerance is available for the feature as the actual mating
size of the feature changes.
Correct Answer: d) A symbol (or lack thereof) placed in a feature control frame that indicates
how much, or if, any extra geometric tolerance is available for the feature as the actual mating

22. Which is the correct definition of regardless of feature size?
Answer Provided: c) Regardless of where a feature of size lies within its size tolerance, the

Correct Answer: d) Control placed on a feature of size stating that the geometric tolerance must
be met regardless of where the feature lies within its size tolerance.
23. What is "Rule 1" (i.e. the "Envelope Rule" or the "Perfect form at MMC Rule"), and what
effect does it have, if any, on flatness? ...straightness? ...perpendicularity? ...position?
Answer Provided: c) If specified by using an MMC symbol next to the tolerances in a feature
control frame, then size tolerance controls form. It affects flatness, straightness, perpendicularity
