If there is no basic dimension to control location of a profile then it's just FORMONLY, correct.

You are partially correct, but I couldn't resist.!LOL!
What does the symbol look like? An arc with no bottom, or with a line?When in doubt, post code. A second set of eyes might see something you missed.

ARC without the line is PROFILE OF A LINE (2-D)
Examples of this would be (sheet metal)
PROFILE OF A SURFACE for all the surface and profile of a line for the edge of the surface.
FORM and LOCAITON will come into play by way of the datums called out. No datums in the FCF (profile 1.0mm) is form only. IF even 1 datum is in the FCF, then it is form and location since it has to be held in relationship to said datum.
As for a basic dimension, there is no basic dimension for profile. There has to be a tolerance value, but no basic.
Geez, John, I would have thought you would have gotten that one!sigpic

Originally posted by Matthew D. Hoedeman View PostI would say not, simply because the toleranced surface will NOT have any deviaiton to the A datum, it is perpendicular to the A datum. Maybe they wanted a perp. callout? I mean, check a point on that surface, is there any deviation in the axis that is the A datum? NOPE!
My GD&T book seem to suggest that if there are no Basics holding it's location then it is form only.
But if there are bacics holding it; it does say that now it's form and location.

I would agree that what they want is to control the surface perp. to datum A. Why they called it out that way I don't know. I don't think it is an invalid callout. Although, it would be much more clear if they had put a basic 90º in there. Kev, you want to weigh in on this one?

I knew that! No clue what I was thinking.... I humbly apologize for my poor answer. I will not drink one beer this weekend as penance.When in doubt, post code. A second set of eyes might see something you missed.
