The container dimensions for this type of calculation should be based on the mass of product. Thus the diameter is the nominal can diameter less 1/8 in and the height is the nominal can height less 1/8 in less the headspace of the container. For two-piece cans with only one double seam 1/8 in is subtracted. An easy system, using can factors, for conversion to various can sizes is given by Ball and Olson (1957) in tabular form.
