It's correct. The number [that/which is] written in the catalog is 30. I'm not sure which structure you have in mind.

  • It's correct.
  • The number [that/which is] written in the catalog is 30.
  • I'm not sure which structure you have in mind.
  • Perhaps written ?
  • I call it a relative clause equivalent but I think many native speakers refer to it as a reduced clause.
