Bore corrosion allowance is subtracted from the thickness of the hub. Flange corrosion allowance is subtracted from the thickness of the "flange" (where the bolts go through).

For example, Appendix 2 provides formulas for calculated stress in the flange based on flange thickness "t". COMPRESS determines "t" as the nominal (specified) thickness of the flange minus the flange corrosion allowance.

Corrosion allowance is not applicable on flange thickness.
