I'm surprised it ranks:

12. Tattered Castle Drape (11908)
Source: World Drop (BOE)

13. Cloak of the Enemy (11368)
Source: Heroic Nexus

in that order. It's putting more emphasis on block value than the avoidance gain from the defence?

These are the default numbers Loot-Rank is using.

Str: 40
Stam: 78
Agil:65

Armor: 6
Defense: 80
Dodge: 75
BV: 45
BR: 15
Parry: 70
Hit: 30
Expertise: 60

Honestly, since I'm ussually doing this on work subsidized wow time I am just looking for the simplest way to get some ratings quickly. I'd agree with you though, as an Ulduar tank I try to ignore BV completely, I sure wouldnt give it a 45 rating. Its pretty easy to change the order and rating numbers but i would look to people better at math to come up with a good stat weight system.

Another instalment. Slight change in the order of ranking but nothing earch shattering.

Chests
Yet another reason to grind Wyrmrest Accord reputation: Breastplate of the Solemn Council is easily obtainable and will last until you get to wear purple for that slot. The T7(10) chestpiece is available for 10-man badges and is well worth the effort. Certainly the best you can get unless you do 25-man raiding.

12. Icebane Chestguard (32890)

Chest Enchants
Yet again we see the effective health and the avoidance enchant being almost equal when it comes to raw survival. If you have problems reaching crit immunity, getting +16 Defense Rating on your chestpiece is a good idea.

Super Health (1950)
+275 Health

Powerful Stats (1830)
+10 All Stats

Greater Defense (159p)
+22 Defense Rating

Flamewatch Bindings should be up there for tank bracers should they not?

I don't see this mentioned on the Waist list and it looks like it would be a good fit.

Stormtempered Girdle

I added a belt buckle and a +41 stamina gem to this piece and it was an upgrade for me from

Waistguard of Living Iron

Any thoughts?

Feet
Patch 3.1: New BOE crafted boots are best-in-slot for survival AND offers great threat stats aswell.

I know I'm repeating myself here, but let's just underline how nice Wyrmrest Accord reputation is for plate tanks: Sabatons of Draconic Vigor is available at probably the best blue boots around. The BOE crafted epics are kinda lackluster, and they're certainly not something I'll pay good gold for.
