contents The paper is concerned with three types of cubic splines over a triangulation that are characterized by three degrees of freedom associated with each vertex of the triangulation. The splines differ in computational complexity, polynomial reproduction properties, and smoothness. With the aim to make them a versatile tool for numerical analysis, a unified representation in terms of locally supported basis functions is established. The construction of these functions is based on geometric concepts and is expressed in the Bernstein--Bézier form. They are readily applicable in a range of standard approximation methods, which is demonstrated by a number of numerical experiments.
