Nomenclature of fi gures and tables:
The progressive number of each fi gure is shown in the bottom righthand corner of the relative box. An example of a progressive number
is “Fig. 4-01”, where the fi rst number (4) indicates the section to
which the fi gure belongs, while the second number (01) indicates
the progressive number of the fi gure in section 4 (Fig. 4-01 is the

bearing in mind that “Tab.” is used instead of “Fig.” (e.g.: Tab. 4-01
is the fi rst table in section 4). If a table occupies more than one page,
a letter is added after the progressive number (e.g.: “Tab. 4-01a”,
Tab. 4-01b”).
