Perpendicular callout for rectangular features

Perpendicular callout for rectangular features

Perpendicular callout for rectangular features

(OP)
Currently, it is my understanding that the perpendicular callouts will work as shown?

Thanks

RE: Perpendicular callout for rectangular features

(OP)
I thought the perpendicular callout would take care of locating the .746 dim because the centerlines are the split for the bilateral tolerance.

RE: Perpendicular callout for rectangular features

Perpendicularity does not control location.

Just showing center-lines does not imply any locational relationship. (ASME Y14.5M-1994 2.7.3)

However, I should have checked, what standards are you working too?

I am working to the newest standard. And I'm very new to it :)

ASME

RE: Perpendicular callout for rectangular features

You might consider using profile tolerance for the whole shape.

RE: Perpendicular callout for rectangular features

Tick, may depend in part on how critical the corner radii are. If not critical then using position might be the way to go - otherwise you need to annotate accordingly.

aldumoul - can you give us some info on the design intent/functional relationships etc.

I'm wondering if you should reference datum A on the right hand views FCF.
