The unit weight of steel is 7850kg per cubic meter, so the unit weight of different bars can be calculated by multiplying the volume of 1m length of bar with the unit weight of steel.

It can also be calculated simply by dividing the square of the diameter of bar in mm by 162.

Diameter of bar unit weight calculation.

8 0.395kg/m w=8x8/162

10 0.617kg/m w=10x10/162

12 0.889kg/m w=12x12/162

16 1.580kg/m w=16x16/162

20 2.469kg/m w=20x20/162

25 3.858kg/m w=25x25/162

What is formula to calculate the weight of steel bar?

volume of steel multiplied by7850= wt of steel in kgs. Please note that wt of 1 Cum steel is 7850 kg Volume of steel bar can be calculated = cross-sectional area of bar X length cross-sectional area of Bar= pie x d X d/4 (where d is diameter of bar)


Per meter unit weight of mild steel hollow pipes 2 mm thick?

No set answer to that, as steel pipes come in various diameters and wall thicknesses. If you want to be real accurate, they also come in various steel alloys, which do have some difference in density between them.


What is the unite weight of steel bars?

unit wt of reinforcement bar can be obtained in kg/ meter by d*d/162.162 where d is the dia of bar The formula is based on the density of rebar 490 lb/cft


What is the unit weight of 20 mm dia tmt bar?

Density = mass/volumeThe unit weight of steel is 7850 kg/m3volume of bar = (πd2/4)*Lhence mass = ((πd2/4)*L)*7850= ((3.14 *d2/4)*1)*7850 for unit length= 0.785*d2*7850= 6162.25 d2 if d is in metersor d2 /162 if d is in mm.By putting the value of diameter of rod, you can calculate the unit weight of any size tmt bar.


What is the unit weight for rebar 14mm?

0.395 kgs = unit wt of 8 mm dia rebar There is another way of calculating the specific weight (or unit weight) of a rebar. Especially for those who are interested of rebars less than 10mm of dia. the way is to calculate it mathematically knowing that the density of steel rebars is 7851 Kg/m3. 8mm rebar ==>Unit weight [Kg/m] = Cross-Sectional Area [m2] x Density [kg/m3]= (Pi)x(radios)2 x 7851 kg/m3 = 0.395 Kg/m Good luck !!
