Regarding Common Zone in GD&T
(OP)
Hello Friends,
Is it Possible to give Datum Common Zone for Different height surface?
Is it Possible to give Datum Common Zone for Different height surface with Flatness?
For me, the plane or surface which have same level or height ,we can give Common Zone with Datum with flatness.
Kindly see the attached image for your reference.
Kindly give your suggestion regarding the same.
Thanks

Also let us know if you are working to ASME or ISO tolerancing standards.
But in general the answer seems to be no to both of your questions. A single datum can be created from two surface that are offset from each other, but that is usually done with two letters combined with a dash, such as A-B. The flatness of these two coulddf be controlled with profile of a surface, designating the distance between them as a basic dimension (in ISO, called a theoretically exact dimension).

From the appearance of your CZ symbol you work to ISO.
Yes, you can apply CZ to features set apart from each other. See picture.
Like Belanger said, you have to use basic (theoretically exact) dimensions to show exactly how much the surfaces are apart.

I am sorry for the files couldn't open.
This is the format we work for ISO.
Hope at least the pdf will open this time!!!!!

I love the position of the surface and all, too. "CZ" has been part of your standard longer than most of us have been doing this.

Yes, your latest picture will be fine; flatness with CZ keeps them coplanar and creates the datum, then position with the given distance locates the top side from datum A.
