ASME Y14.5M 2009?

[SDETERS]

Is there a 2009 standard that is coming out to simliar the the ASME y14.5 1994?

What Changes are in it and if so when will it be released?

If I missed a thread please point me to it and I can read that thread. I did not find one doing a search.

Thanks

ASME started the finalization process in late 2007. It's been pushed back at least once, if I remember correctly (from the rumor mill). The last estimate I saw for the release of the next ASME Y14.5 is around April this year.

This has been discussed several times over the last year or two in this forum, take a look.

KENAT,

Have you reminded yourself of faq731-376 recently, or taken a look at posting policies:

Thanks I will have to try to do a better search

According to the ASME website it will be available 03/09. So next month sometime.

FYI - this is available now.

At $169.00, they more than doubled the price. Also, even though the site is running the promotion for it already, when you add it to the cart, you get a notice that it's not available yet. Funny.

I added it to the cart and it didn't say anything about not being available, but I didn't checkout, so maybe you're right.

Does anyone know, does this mean that the test for GDTP etc will only be to the new standard now?

I got the GDTP study guide just over a year ago, hoping to complete last year but it didn't happen. Have I all but wasted my $?

KENAT, I previously contacted ASME and I received this response back:

"The 2009 edition of the Y14.5 standard will be available in March, 2009. The examination for certification will continue to be based on Y14.5-1994 until the examination is updated. We do not expect to have the certification examination updated before March of 2010."

From the ASME Web site today:

Y14.5 - 2009 Dimensioning and Tolerancing
This Standard establishes uniform practices for stating and interpreting dimensioning, tolerancing, and related requirements for use on engineering drawings and in related documents. [GD&T]
List Price: $169.00
Format: or
No. of pages: 224
The Print version of this item is currently unavailable.


Y14.5M - 1994 Dimensioning and Tolerancing
This Standard establishes uniform practices for stating and interpreting dimensioning, tolerancing, and related requirements for use on engineering drawings and in related documents. [GD&T]
List Price: $145.00

-----------
$24 more for 20 fewer pages...... maybe that's a good thing

With any luck, new training manuals may be out before the Standard.

What my previous post neglected to say was that the PDF version of "Y14.5 - 2009 Dimensioning and Tolerancing" is available for purchase and download.

There are a few questions surrounding certification. Will you be able to elect to certify for '94 even if '09 is out? Will those certified currently have to pass a complete body of knowledge test, or an upgrade test? If you aren't certified now, and pass the '09 test, will that automatically grandfather you for the '94 standard?

Thanks for the answer on my slightly off topic question.

I don't seem to be able to download the new standard. Actually it didn't give me the option but it did say that it was not available until 03/09??

Try this:

http://catalog.asme.org/Codes/PrintBook/Y145_2009_Dimensioning.cfm

It doesn't give you the option of download when you follow the link on the ASME homepage. Looks like the print version has been pushed to April.

Thanks - the download version did work.

Interesting though, the cover page has 2 diameters where only a size and size tolerances are shown. No relationship between the diameters is reflected and, if I remember correctly, that was a thread here in the past. Looks like there will still be room here for discussion.

The price for the hard copy is $169+$18 shipping = $187

Correction: Print version looks like later this month, not April...I remember seeing 3/27 somewhere, but I can't find where now.
