Use of Tabular Dimensions

Use of Tabular Dimensions

(OP)
Hello all,

I am in the process of assisting in the update of David A. Madsens' 5th Edition of "Engineering Drawing and Design", published by Thomson-Delmar Learning.  I am working on Chapter 25 which covers HVAC, Pattern Development and Precision Sheet Metal Drafting.  

In the Precision Sheet Metal Drafting section, it is stated that for items such as chassis layouts, that the method of dimensioning these parts "...includes standard unidirectinal, arrowless or tabular dimensioning systems".

My question is this:  Is tabular dimensioning used that much for this type of sheet metal work?

Thank you for your reply's.
