TYPICAL or TYP notation on drawings 4 - Eng-Tips ANSI Y14 5 used to dictate the use of X instead of TYP, but ASME Y14 5-1994 now states that X "may" be used, which seems like TYP is allowed once more It is still poor practice in my opinion, as specifying the number of places removes ambiguity As for symmetrical parts, any qty question is answered by the symmetry mark on the centerline
ANSI Y14. 5M 1982 and use of TYP - Eng-Tips I often use "TYP" for weld symbols (although the external and internal drafting standards where I work are all but non-existant) I think with weld symbols, it is a lot cleaner Also, I would argue that in some applications, it makes more sense to use "TYP" without the number of places specified
Multiple Hole Pattern Defintion - Eng-Tips So, per a previous post of mine, we've discussed that fact that TYP is a nonstandard way of indicating multiple instances of a dimension and a preferred method is to actually state how many times the dimension is applied (e g 24X R 125) So I'm working on a fixture drawing that holds 4 164 pin connectors
What does TYP (Typical) mean on a drawing? - Eng-Tips Using TYP is an old habit that is still hard to quit The dimension and applied tolerances for this feature are the same for all other features of the same size and shape [green]"I think there is a world market for maybe five computers "[ green] Thomas Watson, chairman of IBM, 1943 Have you read faq731-376 to make the best use of Eng-Tips Forums?
AMS 2700: Which Type with Which Grade? 6 - Eng-Tips The alloy-specific passivation recommendations historically contained in the body of the text, and the extensive alloy listings in Table 2 of QQ-P-35 and AMS-QQ-P-35 have not been incorporated in AMS 2700
Weight Room Live Loads 3 - Eng-Tips What is the floor structure made up of? 300-400 lbs as an impacting point load on 3-4 sq in , falling from 6' might not be an inappropriate loading, when some big horse drops a set of weights
Hole Notes (ASME Y14. 5M-1994) 4 - Eng-Tips Call out what's needed to make the part I usually only call out the thd type and depth, unless it's starting on a counterbore surface, then I will add a dim on a section view to show the depth from t he correct surface
Expanded use of ALL AROUND Symbol 1 - Eng-Tips We apply the word "ALL AROUND" to any fillet or cham where needed We eliminated the word "TYP" here cause of the same reason you mentioned, to vague I don't agree at all with your GD T guys How i understand it, this symbol only meant for GD T Plus i could see it being missed very easily on dimensions Solid Edge V20
THRU, THRU ALL and Continuous Feature 1 - Eng-Tips THRU - I'd say necessary when it's not otherwise obivious that the cut hole goes thru the entire part I'm perhaps a bit generous in my use but having been the idiot searching a drawing for the hole depth only to finally realize it was a thru hole I use it a lot
