It was clear that students in TEC333 had difficultyrecognizing the DRF when given a drawing with GD&T. This was especially true when holeswere used as datum features. Since one of the main tenants of GD&T is to provide consistencythrough design, manufacturing, and inspection, conducting a closer examination of design intentwithin the drawing, constraint-based model, and the inspection method could provide useful datafor improving instruction.References1.
