How To Calculate Steel , Calculate Weight , Total weight.

If Dia. of Steel is Given in (Inch) then we use this formula:

=>8/3 X (Dia X Dia) Answer will be in Lbs/Ft.

If Dia of Steel is Given in (Sotar #) then we use this formula:

=> (Dia X Dia) /52.91 Answer will be in kg/ft.

If Dia. of steel is Given in (mm) then we use this formula:

=>(Dia X Dia)162.162 Answer will be in Kg/m.

Let we take an example ,A 10 Nos. of Bars having length 40ft each with 3/4inch Dia.Calculate Total weight in KG.

Dia= 3/4inch

Total Nos= 10

Each bar Length= 40ft

Total Length= 10 x 40 = 400ft.

Unit weight=8/3 X (0.75 x 0.75) = 1.5 Lbs/ft.

Total weight= 400 X 1.5= 600 Lbs.

= 600/2.2045 = 272.17 kg.

=272.17/40= 6.804 Mond.

=6.805/25= 0.27217 Ton.

Note: Some Units Used Above as Standard factors are below

1Kg= 2.2045 Lbs

1Mond= 40Kg

1Ton=25Mond=1000Kg

1Inch=8 Sotar

On Steel Bar mention like this format ( FF Steel/5/G/60)

FF Steel= Name of Company

5= Dia of steel (5# or 5/8inch)

G= Grade

60= Strength = 60,0000PSI

PSI= Pound Square inch.
