Examples of different types of surfaces are shown in Figure 1–2.

Surfaces in CATIA are primarily used to create complex shapes
that are not easily created using solid geometry. Creating
geometry with surfaces requires a basic understanding of
surface modeling styles and an understanding of the process
used to create complex surfaces to ensure robust surface
models.
