The horizontal leg limit is 100mm <= l_h <=200mm,  where l_h is the cantilever length. This limit is taken from the design guide SCI-P-157.  Although this guide is for angles it was thought prudent to apply this limit also to flat steel plates where the mathematical model of this guide is also applied.
