The authors define ``basic forms'', a suitable class of ordered Abelian semigroups, and prove that any BL-chain has a tower of basic forms naturally associated, which, in turn, yields a BL-chain. Using this representation, the authors classify finite and finitely universal BL-chains, from which they deduce, among others, the decidability of the set of BL-tautologies.
