Shield specs

So I know that with the 2.0 rulebook the size restrictions are rather vague. The old rules had the max length of a side to be 36 inches and there was a maximum surface area but I can't remember/find what it was. I'm looking to make either a roman scutum (tower shield) or a proper greek Aegis (they're rather large) what are some thoughts, general rules of construction, what I should look out for, etc.

The current tower shield I'm designing is 48 in. tall and 23ish in. wide (which will be bent to much less)
Would this work?

From a marshal standpoint, there are no longer restrictions on shield size, so no problem with a 48x23 shield.

As was mentioned in an earlier response, you’ll want to be concerned about the weight, based on whatever material you’ll be using.

I make my shields out of corrugated plastic, but I do t know that you would be successful getting it to bend nicely.
