Hi,

I am making a welded structure with ISO corners, and need to set tolerance between the ISO corners. I look at earlier project and there have no tolerances at all, beside the general ISO tolerances. If I look at the standard for a general container it say L= +0-10 mm W= +0 -5 h= + -5.

But the problem with ISO is the independence principle, (if I don't use a e-modifier or CZ). So there is no easy way for me to set up the tolerance, I can not write a tolerance as +0 -5, and get flatness included.

So my question is how would you guys set up the tolerance?
