An engineer must know the "ovality" of a hole. Some holes are so out of round that they have several radius's with different center lines (C/L's).
The hole has to be analyzed using something like a "Tally Round" which will give you the exact shape of a hole and then calculate the "area".
At least that's what Mr.Torricelli told me the last time I talked to him.
