The terms in the glossary are from Alex’s 2009 Ultimate GD&T pocket guide, which can be ordered on our website.
The 2009 GD&T pocket guide is spiral bound, so it lays flat. It has several new organizational features, like index tabs, a topical index, and a glossary. We’ve also added references to clauses within the standard and cross-references to other pages within the pocket guide that contain application examples or other related information.
