Geometrical product specifications (GPS) - Geometrical tolerancing - Pattern and combined geometrical specification (ISO 5458:2018)

This document establishes complementary rules to ISO 1101 to be applied to pattern specifications and
defines rules to combine individual specifications, for geometrical specifications e.g. using the symbols
POSITION, SYMMETRY, LINE PROFILE and SURFACE PROFILE, as well as STRAIGHTNESS (in the case
where the toleranced features are nominally coaxial) and FLATNESS (in the case where the toleranced
features are nominally coplanar) as listed in Annex C.
These rules apply when a set of tolerance zones are grouped together with location or orientation
constraints, through the use of the CZ, CZR or SIM modifiers.
This document does not cover the use of the pattern specifications when the least and maximum
material requirement is applied (see ISO 2692).
This document does not cover the establishment of common datum (see ISO 5459) based on pattern
features.

Geometrische Produktspezifikation (GPS) - Form und Lagetolerierung - Positions- und Mustertolerierung (ISO 5458:2018)

Dieses Dokument legt ergänzende Regeln zu ISO 1101 fest, die auf Elementgruppenspezifikationen anzuwenden sind, und definiert Regeln zur Kombination einzelner Spezifikationen für geometrische Spezifikationen, z. B. durch Verwenden der Symbole POSITION, SYMMETRIE, LINIENPROFIL und FLÄCHENPROFIL sowie GERADHEIT (wenn die tolerierten Geometrieelemente nominal koaxial sind) und EBENHEIT (wenn die tolerierten Geometrieelemente nominal koplanar sind) wie in Anhang C angegeben.
Diese Regeln gelten, wenn eine Reihe von Toleranzzonen durch Verwenden der CZ-, CZR- oder SIM-Modifikatoren mit Nebenbedingungen für Ort oder Richtung zusammengefasst werden.
Dieses Dokument behandelt nicht das Anwenden der Elementgruppenspezifikationen, wenn die Minimum- und die Maximum-Material-Bedingung angewendet wird (siehe ISO 2692).
Dieses Dokument behandelt nicht das Festlegen eines gemeinsamen Bezugs (siehe ISO 5459) basierend auf Gruppenelementen.

Spécification géométrique des produits (GPS) - Tolérancement géométrique - Spécification géométrique de groupes d'éléments et spécification géométrique combinée (ISO 5458:2018)

Le présent document établit des règles complémentaires de celles de l'ISO 1101 à appliquer aux spécifications de groupes d'éléments et définit des règles pour combiner des spécifications individuelles, pour les spécifications géométriques, par exemple en utilisant les symboles de LOCALISATION, SYMÉTRIE, PROFIL DE LIGNE et PROFIL DE SURFACE, ainsi que les symboles de RECTITUDE (dans le cas où les éléments tolérancés sont nominalement coaxiaux) et de PLANÉITÉ (dans le cas où les éléments tolérancés sont nominalement coplanaires) comme listés en Annexe C.
Ces règles s'appliquent lorsqu'un ensemble de zones de tolérances sont regroupées ensemble avec des contraintes de position ou d'orientation, en utilisant les modificateurs CZ, CZR ou SIM.
Le présent document ne couvre pas l'utilisation des spécifications de groupes d'éléments lorsque l'exigence du minimum et du maximum de matière s'applique (voir l'ISO 2692).
Le présent document ne couvre pas non plus l'établissement de référence spécifiée commune (voir l'ISO 5459) basée sur des éléments de groupe d'éléments.

through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical
committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International
organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work.
ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of
electrotechnical standardization.
The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are
described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular the different approval criteria needed for the
different types of ISO documents should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the
editorial rules of the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (see www .iso .org/directives).

Introduction
This document is a geometrical product specification (GPS) standard and is to be regarded as a general
GPS standard (see ISO 14638). It influences chain links A, B and C for form, orientation and location.
The ISO/GPS matrix model given in ISO 14638 gives an overview of the ISO/GPS system of which this
document is a part. The fundamental rules of ISO/GPS given in ISO 8015 apply to this document and
the default decision rules given in ISO 14253-1 apply to specifications made in accordance with this
document, unless otherwise indicated.
For more detailed information of the relation of this document to the GPS matrix model, see Annex F.
ISO 1101 and other relevant documents, such as those dealing with the least and maximum material
requirement (ISO 2692) and the datum system (ISO 5459), should be taken into consideration when
using this document.
This document provides rules for the tolerancing of a tolerance zone pattern, i.e. a collection of tolerance
zones constrained to each other with or without reference to a datum system which does not lock all
degrees of freedom.
For the presentation of lettering (proportions and dimensions), see ISO 3098-2.
All figures in this document for the 2D drawing indications have been drawn in first-angle projection
with dimensions and tolerances in millimeters. It should be understood that third-angle projection
and other units of measurement could have been used equally well without prejudice to the principles
established.
Annexes A and B provide more information on the changes in practice and differences between this
document and ISO 1101 on one hand and ISO 5458:1998 on the other hand.

IMPORTANT — The illustrations included in this document are intended to illustrate the text
and/or to provide examples of the related technical drawing specification; these illustrations
are not fully dimensioned and toleranced, showing only the relevant general principles.
In particular, many illustrations do not contain filter specifications. As a consequence, the
illustrations are not a representation of a complete workpiece, and are not of a quality that is
required for use in industry (in terms of full conformity with the standards prepared by ISO/
TC 10 and ISO/TC 213), and as such are not suitable for projection for teaching purposes.
1 Scope
This document establishes complementary rules to ISO 1101 to be applied to pattern specifications and
defines rules to combine individual specifications, for geometrical specifications e.g. using the symbols
POSITION, SYMMETRY, LINE PROFILE and SURFACE PROFILE, as well as STRAIGHTNESS (in the case
where the toleranced features are nominally coaxial) and FLATNESS (in the case where the toleranced
features are nominally coplanar) as listed in Annex C.
These rules apply when a set of tolerance zones are grouped together with location or orientation
constraints, through the use of the CZ, CZR or SIM modifiers.
This document does not cover the use of the pattern specifications when the least and maximum
material requirement is applied (see ISO 2692).
This document does not cover the establishment of common datum (see ISO 5459) based on pattern
features.

The modifier simultaneous requirement (SIM) as indicated in this document shall not be confused with the indication of a
surface imperfection parameter (e.g. SIM1 versus SIMt).
5 Principles
5.1 General
According to the feature principle (see ISO 8015:2011, 5.4), by default a geometrical specification
applies to one complete single feature as defined in ISO 22432. It is the designer’s responsibility to
select the features or portions of features to which a specification applies and either indicate that on a
2D drawing using appropriate symbology or define it in the CAD model.
According to the independency principle (see ISO 8015:2011, 5.5), by default a geometrical specification
that applies to more than one single feature applies to those features independently. The tolerance zones
defined by one tolerance indicator or by several tolerance indicators shall be considered independently
by default; this corresponds to the meaning of the modifier SZ. When the same geometrical specification
is applied to several toleranced features, for all geometrical specifications other than position
specifications, the indication of SZ modifier is redundant (see rule A for position specification, 5.3).
If it is required that the geometrical specification applies to the features simultaneously with some
constraint between the tolerance zones, it is the designer’s responsibility to either indicate this on a 2D
drawing or in the CAD model using appropriate pattern specifications.
In order to manage functional requirements for a set of features, they can be controlled simultaneously
by means of a pattern specification, using tolerance zone pattern modifiers CZ, CZR or SIMn.
The use of the concept of “simultaneous requirement” transforms a set of more than one geometrical
specification into a combined specification, i.e. a pattern specification.

SIST EN ISO 5458:2018
ISO 5458:2018(E)

There are two ways to create a tolerance zone pattern, either by using a single indicator pattern
specification with the CZ or CZR modifiers [see Figure 1 a) and rules C and E] or by using a multiple
indicator pattern specification using SIM modifiers [see Figure 1 b) and rule D (5.4.4)].
a)  Single indicator pattern specification b)  Multiple indicator pattern specification
Figure 1 — Example of pattern specifications
5.2 Concepts
A pattern specification consists of both a set of more than one geometrical feature and a tolerance zone
pattern. The set of tolerance zones in the tolerance zone pattern have internal constraints, which are
defined by implicit or explicit TEDs.
If necessary, external constraints to a tolerance zone pattern can be defined by referencing a datum
system, as defined in ISO 5459. The values of external constraints are defined by implicit or explicit TEDs.
The main specification elements of a pattern specification are:
— the identification of a single indicator pattern specification or a multiple indicator pattern
specification;
— the internal constraint (in orientation and/or in location) between the individual tolerance zones of
the tolerance zone pattern defined by TEDs;
— the tolerance zone pattern defined as a collection of individual tolerance zones;
— if applicable, external constraints (in orientation and/or in location) of the tolerance zone pattern
defined by TEDs from a datum system, see ISO 5459.
There is no functional difference between using n identical specifications or a pattern specification
(with n members) when these specifications refer to a datum system which locks all degrees of freedom
of the related tolerance zones. However, there is a difference from a characteristic point of view: there
is only one pattern characteristic defined for a pattern specification, whereas there are n geometrical
characteristics defined each one for the n individual specifications.
There is a functional difference between using n identical specifications or a pattern specification (with
n members) when the pattern specification refers to a datum system which does not lock all degrees of
freedom of the related tolerance zones, or when the pattern specification does not refer to a datum system.
The rules, applied for pattern specification and their repetitions, are given in 5.3 and 5.4. A concept
diagram in Annex E illustrates these rules. Examples with their meanings are given in Annex C.
5.3 Rule A: for position specification
When a position specification is applied to several geometrical features and the tolerance zones have at
least one unlocked non-redundant degree of freedom, either the SZ or CZ or CZR modifier shall always
be indicated in the tolerance section, see Figure 2 and for former practice, see Annex A.

Using the SZ modifier to a position specification without datum section makes the specification
meaningless.
NOTE This rule is in line with the independency principle stated in ISO 8015. However, ISO 5458:1998 was
in conflict with the independency principle, since a pattern specification without the CZ modifier implied that
the tolerance zones for the repeated specifications were related with internal constraints, and thus dependent
on each other (see Annex A and Annex B). Rule A (5.3), which includes the exception for position specification,
eliminates this conflict.

a)  Pattern specification b)  Not a pattern specification: Two c)  Pattern specification
without a datum independent specifications with a datum

5.4 Rules for pattern specification
5.4.1 General
To create a single indicator pattern specification, a geometrical specification shall be applied to a set
of more than one geometrical feature simultaneously. Internal constraints to define the tolerance zone
pattern between the individual tolerance zones shall be defined and, if necessary, external constraints
from a datum or datum system shall also be defined.
To create a multiple indicator pattern specification, a set of more than one separate geometrical
specification shall be applied to a set of more than one geometrical feature simultaneously. Internal
constraints to define the tolerance zone pattern between the individual tolerance zones shall be defined
and, if necessary, external constraints from a datum or datum system shall also be defined.
It is possible to indicate a repetition of an identical geometrical specification, as described in ISO 1101,
to control several geometrical features.
5.4.2 Rule B: constraints
A pattern specification defines internal constraints.
A pattern specification can define external constraints when the geometrical specification includes a
datum or datum system.
The internal constraints consist of the location constraints and/or the orientation constraints linking
the individual tolerance zones composing a tolerance zone pattern.
The external constraints define the location constraints and/or the orientation constraints linking the
tolerance zone pattern to a datum or datum system.
These internal or externals constraints are defined by TEDs, which can be explicit or implicit.
The following TEDs are i

Introduction
This International Standard is a geometrical product specification (GPS) standard and is to be regarded as a
general GPS standard (see ISO 14638). It influences chain links A, B and C of the chain of standards of
geometrical characteristic with or without datum or datum system.
The ISO/GPS matrix model given in ISO 14638 gives an overview of the ISO/GPS system of which this
document is a part. The fundamental rules of ISO/GPS given in ISO 8015 apply to this document and the
default decision rules given in ISO 14253-1 apply to specifications made in accordance with this document,
unless otherwise indicated.
For more detailed information of the relation of this standard to the GPS matrix model, see Annex B.
Other relevant International Standards, such as those dealing with the least and maximum material
requirement (ISO 2692), and datum system (ISO 5459) should be taken into consideration when using this
standard.
This International Standard provides tools to describe functionalities in relation to more than one feature
considered together, and facilitate the relationship between design, manufacturing and quality services.
More information is provided in Annexes A and B, which cover changes in practice and differences between
ISO 1101:2012 and ISO 5458:1998.

DRAFT INTERNATIONAL STANDARD ISO/DIS 5458(E)

Geometrical product specifications (GPS) — Geometrical
tolerancing — Positional and pattern tolerancing
1 Scope
This International Standard establishes complementary rules to ISO 1101 for geometrical tolerancing of form,
orientation, location or run-out. These rules are applicable when:
 one geometrical specification is applied to more than one geometrical feature considered individually or
as united feature or as a pattern for GPS specification;
 more than one geometrical specification is to be established simultaneously with orientation and/ or
location constraints between them.
This International standard does not cover the use of the pattern (3.1):
 when the least and maximum material requirement is applied (see ISO 2692);
 when a datum is established from a collection of datum features without priority between them as a
pattern (see ISO 5459).

Note 1 to entry: The geometrical features composing a pattern can be compound features or a single feature, which can
be features of size (linear or angular).
Note 2 to entry: A pattern is composed by several geometrical features which either can or cannot be of the same nominal
geometry.
Note 3 to entry: A pattern does not exist when no orientation constraint or no orientation and location constraint exists
between two or more geometrical specifications of form, orientation, location or run-out.
Note 4 to entry: A pattern is qualified as:
 an homogeneous pattern, when it is composed of several single features or united features, which may have the
same nominal geometry and is managed by one geometrical specification;
 a non-homogeneous pattern, when it is composed of several single features or united features having more than one
nominal geometry and managed by more than one geometrical specification.
4 Specification modifiers and symbols
For the purposes of this International Standard, the following specification modifiers and symbols apply (see
Table 1).

5 Principles
5.1 General
In order to manage functional needs, the toleranced feature can be identifiedy as:
 a single feature: complete or restricted;
 a pattern: homogeneous or non-homogeneous.
This International Standard deals only with a pattern.
This same functional need can be applied to several toleranced features, considered independently to each
other or with constraint between them.
This pattern (homogeneous or non-homogeneous) can be constrained in orientation or in location from a
datum system.
There is no functional difference in using or not using the concept of pattern when the specifications managing
the patterns (composed by n geometrical features) use a datum system which locks all degrees of freedom of
the related tolerance zones. However, when the concept of pattern is used there is only one result of
measurement, and when the concept of pattern is not used there are n results of measurement.

ISO/DIS 5458(E)
There is a functional difference in using or not using the concept of pattern when the specifications managing
the patterns (composed by n geometrical features) use a datum system which does not lock all degrees of
freedom of the related tolerance zones.
The rules, applied for repetition or pattern, are presented in 5.2 and examples with their meanings are given in
Annex C.
5.2 Rules
To create a specification on a homogeneous pattern, it is necessary to indicate that a geometrical
specification applies to a repetition of geometrical features.
To create a requirement on a non-homogeneous pattern, it is necessary to indicate that a set of more than
one geometrical specification is applied simultaneously.
The rules A to F allow expressing requirements on homogeneous and non-homogeneous pattern and their
repetition.
Rule A: Indication of repetition of application of the same specification
It is possible to indicate a repetition as described in ISO 1101, in different ways:
a) directly by using several leader lines coming from an unique tolerance indicator or by using an "all
around" symbol (see Figure 1);
b) indirectly by using:
1) nx above the tolerance indicator (see Figure 2) when no interpretation is possible for the identification
of n members;
2) nx above the tolerance indicator followed by an identifier letter (see Figure 3) when an interpretation
is possible for the identification of n members of a pattern on the workpiece. The identifier letter shall
be also indicated individually to identify each member with a leader line with a terminator (arrow or
dot).

Figure 2 — Indirect indication with implicit identification

Figure 3 — Indirect indication with explicit identification
Rule B: Independency between members of repetition or dependency rule for homogeneous pattern
By default, based on the independency principle defined in ISO 8015, a geometrical specification of form,
orientation, location or run-out, without modifier, applied to n geometrical features (n being greater than one),
is equivalent to n independent geometrical specifications: each geometrical feature shall be considered
individually and each specification shall be considered individually (independent between them). The resulting
independent tolerance zones correspond to an implicit indication of the SZ (separate zones) modifier: the "all
around" modifier does not create itself a united feature or a pattern.
When positional tolerancing is applied to several geometrical features and all the non-redundant degrees of
freedoms of the tolerances zones are un-locked, either the SZ (separate zones) modifier or the CZ (combined
zone) modifier shall always be indicated in the second compartment of the tolerance indicator.
NOTE This rule allows the potential conflict of interpretation between ISO 1101:2012 and the former ISO 5458:1998
to be resolved (see Annex B).
To create one homogeneous pattern, the modifier CZ shall be indicated in the tolerance section of the
tolerance indicator.
To create a new level of pattern defined as a homogeneous pattern of more than one homogeneous patterns,
an additional CZ modifier shall be indicated after the sequence defining the previous level of pattern.
EXAMPLE One CZ in the tolerance section defines a single pattern. The sequence CZ CZ CZ in the tolerance
section defines a pattern of patterns of patterns (pattern of level three).

ISO/DIS 5458(E)
Between theses tolerance zones:
 to manage the orientation constraints and the location constraints, the modifier CZ (combined zone) shall
be indicated, and these shall be defined by linear and angular TEDs (implicit or explicit).
 to manage the orientation constraints only, the following order of modifiers CZ (combined zone) and “><”
(orientation only) shall be indicated, and these orientation constraints shall be defined by angular TEDs
(implicit or explicit).
When a geometrical symbol (form, orientation, location (e.g. position), or run-out symbol) is used in the
tolerance indicator without indication of a datum, CZ shall be indicated in the second compartment of the
tolerance indicator. This rule consolidates the general rules, to use CZ when it is necessary to create a
collection of tolerance zones with orientation and location constraints defined between them (see Figure 4 and
former practice in Annex A).

Figure 4 — Example of positional tolerancing applied to a patterns without datum
Rule C: Independency or dependency rule for non-homogeneous patterns
When the tolerance zones corresponding to several geometrical specifications indicated separately are not to
be considered independently, but with orientation and location constraints defined between them
(simultaneous requirement), then the modifier SIM, followed by a number without space if necessary, shall be
indicated close to each related geometrical specification, preferably on the free side of the tolerance indicator
(see Figures 5 and 9).
NOTE 1 The modifier SIM is not an implicit modifier: see independency principle of ISO 8015.
NOTE 2 'SIM' in ISO 8785 is used for the Surface IMperfection parameters family with some indices (e.g. a, n, t, w, cd,
ch, sh, n/A). The modifier simultaneous requirement (SIM) as indicated in this standard is not to be confused with the
indication of an imperfection surface parameter (e.g. SIM1 versus SIMt).
