There are harmonic equivalents for five groups of surfaces obtained through the 4th order space curve of the 1st category. Mapping was done through a system of circular cross-sections. Both classical and relativistic geometry interpretations are presented. We also designed spatial models - a spatial model of the pencil of quadrics and a spatial model of the pencil of equivalent quadrics. Besides the boundary surfaces, one surface of the 3rd order, which is an equivalent to a triaxial ellipsoid, passes through this pencil of surface of the 4th order. The center of inversion is located on the contour of the ellipsoid. The parabolic cylinder is mapped into its equivalent, by mapping the contour parabola of the cylinder, in the frontal projection, in relation to the center and the sphere of inversion into a contour curve of the 4th order surface. The generating lines of the parabolic cylinder, which are in a projecting position and pass through the antipode, are mapped into circles (also in a projecting position) whose diameters are from the center of inversion to the contour line. The application of the 4th order surfaces in architectural practice is also presented. [Projekat Ministarstva nauke Republike Srbije, br.
