thread1103-357847: Rounding dimensions for part inspection
Would the terminology "Truncating" apply to the term rounding as well? Seems I remember if you have a tolerance of +/- .01 you can accept parts up to +.019 over the nominal, they excused that as truncating the tolerance. Anyone that can add to this?

Otherwise there is no rounding or truncating applied to the interpretation of dimensions and tolerance limits.
Consider them the way you would like to pay for things. If the price is $10 would you accept being charged $19.99 or even $14.99?
