Can be slightly curved
Dimension PlacementWhenever possible, dimensions should be placed between the views to which they relate.
Avoid Preferred
Extension Line ConflictLine conflict should be kept to a minimum.
– Place smallest dimensions closest to the object.

Avoid Preferred
Circles and CurvesCircles/curves are dimensioned in a number of ways
– depending upon diameter/radius– TYP. = Typical unless noted otherwise

Hole NotesSpecial symbols
– simplify dimensioning multiple or complex holes
