There isn't a way to limit the scale on a UIPinchGestureRecognizer. To limit the height in your code, you should be able to do something like this:

CGFloat scale = 1.0 - (lastScale - pinchscale);
CGRect bounds = [(UIPinchGestureRecognizer*)sender view].bounds;
scale = MIN(scale, maximumHeight / CGRectGetHeight(bounds));
scale = MAX(scale, minimumHeight / CGRectGetHeight(bounds));

To limit width, change 'Height' to 'Width' in the last two lines.
