    The document discusses fingerprint classification and formulas. It describes how fingerprints are classified and blocked, including indicating pattern types with letters and lines. A fingerprint classification formula is a numerical description composed of figures and letters that provides a unique identifier for a set of fingerprints. The formula includes six divisions - primary classification, secondary classification, sub-secondary classification, major division, final, and key - that are written in specific positions in the classification line.

    I – FINGERPRINT CLASSIFICATION FORMULA


    Classification: It is the method of obtaining a formula for a set of fingerprints where by it may be
    located in the filing cabinet.
    Classification Formula: It is a numerical description of a set of fingerprints which is composed of
    figures and letters written above the horizontal line like a fraction.
    Classification Line: It refers to a long line usually placed on the right upper corner of the fingerprint
    chart where the classification formula of the given 10 rolled fingerprints is exhibited.

    A. BLOCKING – indicating the type of pattern by placing at the bottom of each finger block to reflect the
    type.
    1. Markings that are indicated at the bottom of each finger block to reflect the type.
    a. Under the index fingers, appropriate capital letters should be placed for every pattern.
    • Plain arch A
    • Tented arch T
    • Plain whorl W
    • Central pocket loop whorl C
    • Double loop whorl D
    • Accidental whorl X
    2. Under all other fingers, the appropriate small letters should be placed for every pattern except for
    the loop.
    3. Loops in any fingers are designed by the diagonal line slanting on the direction of the loop.
