    Study Notes

    Allowance and Tolerance

    • Nominal size is the actual size of the component as annotated in the drawing or blueprint.
    • Tolerance is the difference between the maximum and minimum limits of basic or nominal size.
    • Tolerance is also the difference between the upper and lower deviations in basic or nominal size.
    • Tolerances are assigned to mating parts.

    Tolerance Types

    • Tolerances can be expressed as direct limits, or as tolerance values applied directly to a dimension.
    • Types of tolerance include:
      • Limit tolerance (upper and lower dimensional sizes are stacked on top of each other)
      • Unilateral tolerance (a target dimension is given along with a tolerance)
      • Bilateral tolerance

    Drawing Dimensioning

    • Most aircraft drawings are dimensioned using a reference edge from which all dimensions are made.
    • Holes are typically located with reference to one corner of a part.
    • Two ways of placing dimensions on a drawing:
      • Writing all dimensions perpendicular to the dimension lines.
      • Writing all dimensions parallel to the bottom of the drawing.

    Manufacturer's Publications

    • Aircraft manufacturers provide various manuals with their products to assist engineers in inspection, maintenance, and repair.
    • Manufacturer's manuals are acceptable data.
    • The engineer must use these manuals when performing maintenance.

    Aircraft Maintenance Manual

    • The primary reference tool for aviation maintenance engineers working on aircraft.
    • Divided into chapters, with similar information found in each chapter.

    ATA 100 Chapter Structure

    • Chapters 00 to 23, with each chapter covering a specific subject.
    • Examples of chapters include:
      • 23: continued from previous page
      • 28 to 116: no specific subjects listed

    International Standards

    • International Standards and ISO Standards are documented agreements containing technical specifications or other precise criteria.
    • Goal is to ensure that materials, products, processes, and services are fit for their purpose.

    ISO

    • International Organization for Standardization (ISO) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies.
    • ISO publishes International Standards to complement product or service requirements stated in company specifications.

    Drawing Types

    • Exploded view drawings:
      • Show every part in an assembly.
      • Parts are in their relative positions and expanded outwards.
      • Each part is identified by its physical appearance and reference number.
    • Sectional drawings:
      • Four types: Revolved section, Removed section, Half section, Complete section.
      • Used to illustrate the internal shape of a part.

    ATA Specification 100

    • ATA Specification calls for organizing an aircraft's technical data into individual systems, which are numbered.
    • Each system has provisions for subsystem numbering.
    • Example: fire protection system is designated as Chapter 26 under the ATA 100 specifications.
