Let me try and I am sure if I will miss something or provide wrong information there are people/experts here who will set the record straight.
I do not know if ISO (with Independency principle, ISO 8015 stated) and ASME (with I symbol attached to 38±0.2 dimension) will have different extreme boundaries (OP question has been: what would be the maximum and minimum envelope that 38±0.2 dimension would never violate?)
In my opinion would be the same for both envelopes or extreme boundaries (38.4 and 37.6) Please, correct me if I am wrong. I am trying to learn from each and every discussion.
Also, the parallelism would not be added to the sum of flatness and maximum material size. I am not sure how can I explain why (would not be added), but I would say because the orientation (parallelism in our case) never locates only orients and the extreme boundaries are already determined by the flatness and the size tolerance. Am I correct? Any orientation error should only be toward the inside of the material in order to not be exceeding the limits of size.
What I know is: The tolerance zone is limited by two parallel planes a distance 0.2 apart and parallel to the datum plane C. The extracted (actual) surface shall be contained between two parallel planes 0,2 apart, which are parallel to datum plane C.
Hmm, any errors in my statements? Or better to ask any truth?
