Dear all,

In the case of a elliptical flat plate to be used as internal cover of a manway, what value should be used as factor C for the calculation of the required thickness of the plate?

I looked in Fig. PG-31 of ASME code Section I and I'm not sure which one is applicable to this case.

Best regards.
