How to Evaluate Depth of Hemispherical Head?

Depth of Hemispherical Head evaluator uses Height of Formed Head = Outer Shell Diameter/2 to evaluate the Height of Formed Head, The Depth of Hemispherical Head formula is defined as a sphere which is the ideal shape for a head, because the stresses are distributed evenly through the material of the head. Height of Formed Head is denoted by ho symbol.
