The computational method is independent of the two flanges (perimeter to perimeter, cutout to cutout, or cutout to perimeter) involved in the measurement, but not all flanges will be measured with each other. For a flange to flange measurement to be made, the two flanges must be opposite each other. To be considered opposite, there must be at least one location where either of the flanges have a tangency curve that is 90 degrees to the other.</p><pre class="indent">1.
