Hi Alec,

As I understanded that, the D cell is there for another section of
different diametre, my design has only one D0 - 1800 mm .
I also have issues with ABS rules as they are made according to imperial
system, It would be desirable to have the calculations in my assignment in
metric system.

Thank You for quick response; Petar
