Nemetschek North America Releases Siemens PLM’s D-cubed 2D DCM Software in VectorWorks

By DE Editors

Siemens PLM Software and Nemetschek North America have released Siemens PLM Software’s D-Cubed 2D Dimensional Constraint Manager (2D DCM) component in Nemetschek’s Vectorworks 2010 design software.

The 2D DCM has been integrated in Vectorworks 2010 to improve the computation of architectural layouts by solving geometric constraints that are inferred from the high-level design requirements of the user. The end result is an associative design experience with improved performance and behavior, which enhances the creation of intelligent models in support of building information modeling (BIM) workflows.

“Licensing the 2D DCM for Vectorworks 2010 extends our relationship with Siemens PLM Software, who also supplies the Parasolid modeling kernel that we introduced in our previous release,” said Sean Flaherty, chief executive officer of Nemetschek North America. “The 2D DCM was the clear choice for a geometric constraint solving platform, offering excellent value, maximum credibility and minimum risk to support the rapid ongoing development of our innovative BIM capabilities. This successful partnership has strengthened our commitment to providing our customers with a superior design experience through sourcing the best available core technologies.”
