Try an Engineering College Library;
also WRC 314 "Bolted Flanged Connections with Full Face Gaskets" for a newer approach

The Australian standard AS1210 covers the design of flanges with full-face gaskets, where the additional moment from the contact outside of the bolt circle is considered as well as gasket factors m & y for full face gaskets.
