RE: Need to learn GD&T
- American ASME Y14.5;
- group of ISO (European) standards.
There are some very fundamental differences between these two and IMHO this fact should have significant impact on whole learning process (choosing proper handbooks, training company etc.).
Being aware of this I would suggest taking really comprehensive live training on fundamentals of GD&T. You will not gain expert knowledge after completing such course but for sure it will help you in better understanding of any book you take later on. It would be also good if you have a copy of a standard you try to follow.
RE: Need to learn GD&T
If not working I would, if in the US, start with the newest standard in the US, ASME Y14.5-2009. As this is not yet in common use also learn then ASME Y14.5M-1994 standard. Find courses at local community colleges and tech schools in your area. Use the web to search for examples of how the standards are used and interpreted (this site is a good example).
