1 Scope
This part of ISO 129 establishes the principles of indication of dimensions and related tolerances in the
field of mechanical engineering.
This part of ISO 129 covers indication of linear as well as angular dimensions and identifies the sub types
of these dimensions.
This part of ISO 129 also identifies the limitations of the use of dimensions and related tolerances in the
field of mechanical enginering. For general principles of dimensioning see ISO 129-11.

Except for linear size, dimensions are only defined for nominal features (i.e., ideal features) on the nominal
model (see ISO/TS 17450-1). Therefore, the use of dimensioning and related tolerances as specifications
for non-ideal features and workpieces therefore may result in specification uncertainty.
NOTE In cases of non-ideal workpieces, where the resulting specification uncertainty of dimensinal tolerancing is not acceptable,
the use of geometrical tolerancing according to ISO 1101 is often a good solution.
The ambiguity of specifications given on TPD as dimensions and related tolerances may be dependent
on the relative magnitude between the dimension tolerance and form deviations on the features and/or
angular deviations between the features related by the dimension, but other reasons may also influence
the ambiguity. For more details about ambiguities in dimensioning and alternative unambiguous ways to
express the intended requirement see Annex A and B.
1st level The main types of dimension are linear dimensions and angular dimensions with length units and
angular units respectively.
2nd level Linear dimensions can be split up into: Linear size, linear distance, path dimension and radius
dimension. Angular dimensions can be split up into: Angular size and angular distance (see also
ISO/TR 14638).
3rd level Some of the 2nd level types of dimension can be split up into more specific types
It is necessary to observe the lowest level of the dimension hierarchy to see the possible specification

The figures, as shown in this part of ISO 129, merely illustrates the text and are not intended to reflect
actual usage. The figures are consequently simplified to indicate only the relevant principles.
A specification given as a linear dimension and its tolerance shall be indicated in TPD in one of two ways
in 5.1.1 or 5.1.2 or 5.1.3.
The dimensional specification in TPD shall have three specification elements: Nominal value, upper limit
deviation and lower limit deviation.
Notes 1 Dimension tolerancing using the limit deviations is also called “plus and minus tolerancing”.
2 Observe, that according to ISO 14659: Non indicated decimals in the tolerance expression is zeros, e.g., 0,2 is equal
to 0,20000000000.........
3 For linear sizes the limit deviations can also be given using the ISO-code system according to ISO 286-1 with exactly
the same meaning.

Cylinder and two parallel planes type Feature of Size - default indication
Figure 1 is illustrating dimensioning of features of size with default definition of the sizes (the drawing
indication is the ISO basic indication for size). ISO 14405 include operation modifier symbols and other
means to change the default definition of the specification operator if needed.
NOTES 1 Observe, ISO 14405 is the first ISO standard, that define the meaning of ± tolerancing for a feature of size. A
requirement given by ± tolerancing for size prior to the issue date of ISO 14405 may therefore be ambiguous.
2 Spherical diameters, symbol SØ, are not covered by ISO 14405 - There are no definitions of
this requirement, valid for non perfect features, in any existing ISO standard.

Dimensioning and tolerancing of a fit may take place on an assembly drawing, when no possibility for
misinterpretation exist.
In case of plus and minus tolerancing see examples on figure 2. In case of ISO-code system according
to ISO 286-1 see examples on figure 3.
Editors comment:
Envelope requirement shall be added to all the diameter specifications on all 5 “drawings” on figure
2 and 3

Linear distance is the spacing between two features each of them either an integral feature or a derived
feature of type point or surface or line.
The interpretation of these requirements on non perfect work pieces is not given in any ISO standard. In
several cases these requirements will be ambiguous and result in specification uncertainty. Ambiguity and
specification uncertainty will occur when either the parallelism deviation between the two features or the
form deviations on the two features are of the same magnitude as the dimension tolerance. The magnitude
of the specification uncertainty will increase when the dimensions of the two features are different and/or
are not at the same position in a plane parallel to the features. In case of specification uncer-
tainty/ambiguity there will exist a number of different interpretations of the requirement. In these cases
each of them will emulate different functions of the features and result in different distances. All fully
allowed by the dimensional requirement.
Step height dimension is the spacing between two nominal parallel surfaces facing the same direction (see
figure 4) or lines on these surfaces. The tolerancing of a dimension of this type can be performed by ±

For explanation and examples of an alternative and tolerancing with less ambiguity see Annex B.2.
Linear distance between an integral feature (i.e. surface or line on a surface) and a derived feature (i.e.
median line or face) (see figure 5).The tolerancing of a dimension of this type can be performed by ±

Linear distance between two derived features (i.e. face and a face or a line and a line or a line and a face
(see figure 6).The tolerancing of a dimension of this type can be performed by ± tolerancing.
For explanation and examples of an alternative and tolerancing with less ambiguity see Annex B.4.

Length of a line along an identified path with indicated start and end points. The line can be on an
integrated feature (surface - see figure 7) or in a derived feature (median face or line - see figure 8). The
tolerancing of a dimension of this type can be performed by ± tolerancing.

specification uncertainty will occur when the form deviations of the feature result in deviation of the
specified length of the same magnitude as the dimension tolerance. In case of specification uncer-
tainty/ambiguity there will exist a number of different interpretations of the requirement. In these cases
each of them will emulate different functions of the features and result in different distances. All fully
allowed by the dimensional requirement.
Radius dimension can be used for an integral feature (see figure 9) and for a derived feature (se figure 10).
The tolerancing of a dimension of this type can be performed by ± tolerancing.
The indication on TPD consist of three specification elements: Symbol R, the nominal value and the
tolerance indication.
b) R8 max
Spherical radius is indicated in TPD in the same way. The symbol for spherical radius is SR.
The interpretation of this requirements on non perfect work pieces is not given in any ISO standard. In
several cases this requirement will be ambiguous and result in specification uncertainty. Ambiguity and
specification uncertainty will occur when the form deviations of the feature is of the same magnitude as
the dimension tolerance. In case of specification uncertainty/ambiguity there will exist a number of different
interpretations of the requirement. In these cases each of them will emulate different functions of the
features and result in different distances. All fully allowed by the dimensional requirement.
For explanation and examples of an alternative and tolerancing with less ambiguity see Annex B.5.
Linear distances can be used as coordinate dimensioning from a defined origin. The origin point shall be
identified by the origin symbol. The coordinate system can be two- or three-dimensional. The coordinate
system can be cartesian (see figure 11) or polar (see figure 12).
When the the origin symbol is used to identify coordinate dimensioning, the angle between the directions
of the coordinate system shall be taken as the nominal angles.

The interpretation of these requirements on non perfect work pieces is not given in any ISO standard. In
several cases these requirements will be ambiguous and result in specification uncertainty. Ambiguity and
specification uncertainty will occur when either the effect of angle deviation from nominal between the
features forming the coordinate system planes or the form deviations on these features are of the same
magnitude as the dimension tolerances used. In case of specification uncertainty/ambiguity there will exist
a number of different interpretations of the requirement. In these cases each of them will emulate different
functions of the workpiece and result in different coordinates for the toleranced features. All of these
different coordinates fully allowed by the dimensional requirement.
For explanation and examples of an alternative and tolerancing with less ambiguity see Annex B.6.
A specification given as an angular dimension and its tolerance shall be indicated in TPD in one of the
following ways in 6.1.1 or 6.1.2 or 6.1.3.

Editors comment:
Explanation/definition - Default???? - given in ISO 8015, 5.1.2 - General direction - “Definition”
similar to ISO 5459:1981 “datum definition” of the associated feature for both integral features - This
is a contradiction to the operator principles for the default definition of linear size (two-point size) in
ISO 14405 - need to be changed!!! No modifiers exist - new standard for angular size is needed - is
this missing standard a “cones and vedges” standard?
Angular size
The interpretation of these requirements on non perfect work pieces is not given in any ISO standard (see
editors comment on example/definition from ISO 8015:1981). In several cases these requirements will be
ambiguous and result in specification uncertainty. Ambiguity and specification uncertainty will occur when
either the effect of angle deviation from nominal between the features forming the angle or the form
deviations on the feature(s) forming the angle are of the same magnitude as the angle dimension

of the requirement. In these cases each of them will emulate different functions of the workpiece and result
in different coordinates for the toleranced features. All of these different coordinates fully allowed by the

Angular distance is the angular spacing between two features each of them either an integral feature or
a derived feature of type point or surface or line.
The interpretation of these requirements on non perfect work pieces is not given in any ISO standard. In

or the form deviations on the two features are of the same magnitude as the angle dimension tolerance.
A number of different interpretations of the requirement will exist. In these cases each of them will emulate
different functions of the features and result in different angular distances. All fully allowed by the angular
dimensional requirement.
angle step dimension is the angular spacing between two surfaces facing the same direction (see figure
