Catalogue and analytical model

The catalogue reference is the value published by the cited sources. The Formulaxis result is a reproducible calculation from simplified nominal geometry; it can differ because real sections include root fillets and other geometric details, and because published values reflect the sources’ rounding and conventions. This comparison is not a regulatory verification.

Difference = (Formulaxis − catalogue) / catalogue. A positive value means the Formulaxis analytical result is higher; a negative value means it is lower.
