This article presents an implementation of a new algorithm for flat development of undevelopable surfaces, which are characteristic of the plates used for construction of ship hull, and designed as B-spline patches, in an Industrial Ship System. The displayed method is based on the structured triangular composition of the surface, for later acquisition of flat development, thereby making differences between the distances of the 3D surface and the flat development minimum. A complete tool
