You take the words right out of my mouth. ;-)

Fine.

Here I used \(10^{-12}\) for ACC. Do these results agree with your calculations?

Yes, these are exactly my results for a spherical dome top. Both with the classic formula, determining R first, as well as with yours where R is not explicitely calculated.
