    This document provides formulas and calculations for determining dimensions for bending sheet metal. It defines variables for bend radius (R), bend angle (A), leg length (LL), bend allowance (BA), and K-factor (K). It then shows calculations for determining the flat length (Lf), leg lengths, and bend allowances given values for those variables on a particular part to be bent.
