    When a dimension is defined in one view but also mentioned again in another view, it will be given as reference in the second case. This rule prevents the mistake of defining it in two different ways accidentally; the "main" (non-reference) mention is the only one that counts as a feature definition and thus as a part acceptance criterion.

  3. Basic dimension - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Basic_dimension

    In a technical drawing, a basic dimension is a theoretically exact dimension, given from a datum to a feature of interest. In Geometric dimensioning and tolerancing , basic dimensions are defined as a numerical value used to describe the theoretically exact size, profile, orientation or location of a feature or datum target.

  4. Geometric dimensioning and tolerancing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geometric_dimensioning_and...

    Geometric dimensioning and tolerancing (GD&T) is a system for defining and communicating engineering tolerances via a symbolic language on engineering drawings and computer-generated 3D models that describes a physical object's nominal geometry and the permissible variation thereof. GD&T is used to define the nominal (theoretically perfect ...

    Coordinate dimensioning was the sole best option until the post-World War II era saw the development of geometric dimensioning and tolerancing (GD&T), which departs from the limitations of coordinate dimensioning (e.g., rectangular-only tolerance zones, tolerance stacking) to allow the most logical tolerancing of both geometry and dimensions ...

  6. Dimension (data warehouse) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dimension_(data_warehouse)

    A dimensional data element is similar to a categorical variable in statistics. Typically dimensions in a data warehouse are organized internally into one or more hierarchies. "Date" is a common dimension, with several possible hierarchies: "Days (are grouped into) Months (which are grouped into) Years",

  7. Dimensional modeling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dimensional_modeling

    Dimensions are the foundation of the fact table, and is where the data for the fact table is collected. Typically dimensions are nouns like date, store, inventory etc. These dimensions are where all the data is stored. For example, the date dimension could contain data such as year, month and weekday. Identify the facts

  8. Technical drawing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Technical_drawing

    A cutaway drawing is a technical illustration, in which part of the surface of a three-dimensional model is removed in order to show some of the model's interior in relation to its exterior. The purpose of a cutaway drawing is to "allow the viewer to have a look into an otherwise solid opaque object.

  9. Tolerance analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tolerance_analysis

    The methods used to conduct a tolerance stackup depend somewhat upon the engineering dimensioning and tolerancing standards that are referenced in the engineering documentation, such as American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) Y14.5, ASME Y14.41, or the relevant ISO dimensioning and tolerancing standards. Understanding the tolerances ...
