The form data bank contains information related to the sculptured surfaces of the ship, that means, the ship surface itself and pure curve information derived form the surfaces. Additionally, there are some tables that keep record of the names of objects in this data bank and of the objects stored there.
Each object type is associated with a registered "data type" (object code 1) with values according to the table below
