Additional manufacturing operations to obtain closer tolerances on sheet materials make it possible to lighten weight of aircraft and rockets, giving improved performance; formula given to determine manufacturing cost of obtaining these closer, more economic, tolerances; method is based upon measuring both extraneous weight and additional cost as functions of tolerance.
