STANDARDS American industry has adopted a new standard, Geometrical Dimensioning and Tolerancing, ANSI Y14.5M-1982. This standard is used in all blueprint production whether the print is drawn by a human hand or by computer-aided drawing (CAD) equipment.

DOD is now adopting this standard For further information, refer to ANSI Y14.5M-1982 and to Introduction to Geometrical Dimensioning and Tolerancing, Lowell W.
