In this case, per ASME 14.5M-1994 yes the dimensions apply all through the part, no need for a 2X or to dimension on both sides of the plate. You may get a better response if you clarify your question, also forum1103 may be a better venue for such quesions in future. If you do post this question there either redflag this one or at least put a link to this one over there.
