Allowable rolling pressure for small-flexibility slab edging

In order to solve the problem of bending instability during slab edging,allowable rolling pressure for small-flexibility slab edging was investigated to realize slabs' stable rolling.A formula was deduced for calculating the allowable rolling pressure.Experimental and application results show that for a slab in a small flexibility range(10〈B/H〈25),the calculated values by the proposed formula are in agreement with the experimental results.
