Factor F in nozzle reinforcement calculation

My assumption is that placing a re-pad around a nozzle is a very approximate/clumsy way of reinforcing the nozzle opening.
The re-pad does reduce stresses however it also distorts the stresses local to the nozzle so that the factor F can no longer accurately estimates the axial and hoop local membrane stresses.
