software algorithms sufficient to 

measure conformance of CAD systems to 

American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) 

standards for Product and Manufacturing Information

Conformance Testing Terminology

PMI element: An annotation, coordinate system, 

supplemental geometry entity, or saved view

Presentation: What the human user sees

(Visual consumption)

Representation: What the downstream software receives

(Automated consumption)

Verification: How well each PMI element is modeled

(CAD system capability)

Validation: How well each PMI element is translated

(Translator capability)

5 NIST MBE PMI FTC Model Verification Results
Fully-toleranced vs. Combined Test Cases

Combined Test Case (CTC)

– Combination of representative PMI constructs

– Not intended to be realistic

Fully-toleranced Test Case (FTC)

– All geometric features are fully-toleranced in the context of the GD&T

– Each tolerancing feature is adequately controlled and constrained by

tolerances that comply with the applicable dimensioning, tolerancing,

and modeling standards

– Includes as many annotation types and constructs as needed to fully

control and constrain each geometric feature relative to one or more

datum reference frames

– Accounts for the constraint requirements on the form, size, orientation,

and location of features and hierarchical interrelationships between

their tolerance zones and datum reference frames

– Not intended to be functional

6 NIST MBE PMI FTC Model Verification Results
Verification Testing Methodology

The representation and presentation of each PMI element is 

compared to the test case specification

Any differences, which cannot be resolved with an alternate 

modeling technique, are categorized as a:

– Representation Limitation

– Presentation Limitation

– Style Difference (representation and presentation are correct but

different between systems)

Each limitation/difference is grouped by characteristic and 

type

An example of each characteristic-type combination is 

documented in this presentation

The following slide indexes (underlined) these examples

If a characteristic is not underlined,

no limitations were found in this dataset. 

Test Case Drawings and Models
Verification Capability Measurement Methodology

Each PMI element limitation/difference is counted by 

category, characteristic, and type

The subtotal per characteristic is divided by the subtotal of 

PMI elements to which it applies

– Multiple limitations/differences of the same characteristic for the same

PMI element are only counted once

The total per category is divided by the total PMI elements

– Multiple limitations/differences of the same category for the same PMI

element are only counted once, with representation > presentation

The following slides show these statistics for this dataset

The name of each CAD system is generalized according to 

the overall results (“CAD A” better than “CAD B”...)

12 NIST MBE PMI FTC Model Verification Results
Verification Percentages by Characteristic and System

13 NIST MBE PMI FTC Model Verification Results

Each percentage is calculated using 

this ratio:

(Element count – Limitation count)

Element count

The limitation count excludes limitations 

with the same characteristic 

(but different types) on the same PMI 

element.

Percentages less than 90% are shown 

in bold font.
Verification Percentages by System

14 NIST MBE PMI FTC Model Verification Results

“No Limitations” measures the capability for 

both automated and visual consumption and is 

calculated as 100% less the other limitation 

percentages.

“Representation Level” measures the capability 

for automated consumption only and is 

calculated as 100% less the representation 

limitations percentage.

The presentation and representation limitation 

percentages are calculated using this ratio:

Limitation count

Element count

The “Presentation Limitation Only” count 

excludes presentation limitations that overlap 

with representation limitations on the same PMI 

element.

The “Element Count” includes all annotations, 

coordinate systems, supplemental geometry 

entities, and saved views specified in the test 

cases.
Verification Summary

The limitation characteristics and types are different for each 

system.

All 4 CAD systems are able to represent more than 80% of 

the annotations, supplemental geometry entities, and saved 

views in this verification test.

The systems vary significantly in their ability to visually 

present the PMI elements as specified in the test cases.

None of the systems are able to present the complex 

dimensions (counterbore, countersink, hole, slot) as specified 

in the test case while representing the correct geometry 

associations for each component of the dimension.
