COL_NAME(fc.parent_object_id,
fc.parent_column_id) AS ColumnName,
OBJECT_NAME (f.referenced_object_id) AS ReferenceTableName,
COL_NAME(fc.referenced_object_id,
fc.referenced_column_id) AS ReferenceColumnName

Find Table Without Clusteded Index – Find Table with no Primary Key
One of the basic Database Rule I have is that all the table must Clustered Index. Clustered Index speeds up performance of the query ran on that table. Clustered Index are usually Primary Key but not necessarily. I frequently run following query to verify that all the Jr. DBAs are creating all the tables with Clustered Index.
USE AdventureWorks ----Replace AdventureWorks with your DBName
GO
SELECT DISTINCT [TABLE] = OBJECT_NAME(OBJECT_ID)
FROM SYS.INDEXES
WHERE INDEX_ID = 0
AND OBJECTPROPERTY(OBJECT_ID,'IsUserTable') = 1
ORDER BY [TABLE]
GO
Result set for AdventureWorks:
TABLE
