it will assume the max-width value as width correct ?
Yes, but I advice against relying on default behavior across browser-land - especially for legacy browsers - when adding 'width: 100%' (or something) costs so little.
If so, how can I declare those base 60em as stated on a) ?
If the layout permits you can declare 'max-width: __px' on one container and 'max-width: __em' on another. If those containers have 'width: 100%' declared they can be styled to interact in perfect harmony with min/max-width declared with different units. Remember also that 'body' is just another container in standard-based web design, so the number of containers in a layout can be kept relatively small without loosing styling-flexibility.
