OK guys I want to model in 3DS MAx an accurate Roman scutum (shield)

I have used a size from wikipedia that says its width was .66m across and the cirumference around the curve was 0.86m. I am trying to work out what the original width was before being turned into a partial cylinder. Maths isn't my forte. Thanks for the help.
