In order to find the weight of the sheet of steel we must first calculate it's mass.
In order to do this we require the volume of the steel sheet (which we can calculate) and the density of mild steel.
The steel sheet in question has a volume of 1 x 1 x 0.01 m3. Mild steel has a density of 7800 kg/m3.[A]
As such the mass = 7800 x 0.01
mass = 78 kg
In order to calculate the weight (which is a force due to gravitational acceleration acting on an object) we must multiply the mass by g - the gravitational acceleration.
Weight = 78 x 9.81
Weight = 765.18 Newtons.

Dia of bar is = 10/1000=.01/2=.005m
Density of bar 7850 kg/m.cub
volume = 3.142*(.005*.005)*1=.00007855 m.cub
weight = .00007855*7850=.61 kg/m

2times the dia of the bar/162,
as a constant will give you the meter length of any bar,.,.,.,.
78.5 kg per square meter ( Mild Steel plate on 10 mm thickness)
to calculate the weight of the steel bar per meter length the formula used is
D2/162
so for 3m length of 10mm bar
= (10 * 10/162 )*3
1kg

plate cs size 3mm 6x2mtr weight per sqm thanks
when you need to find mass or weight of 80mm thick mild steel plate then just measure it's length and width and multiply by it's mass or weight per sqm. volume of steel = 2.5x1.25x.08 = 0.25 cub.m assuming your steel to be mild steel (if the steel is different then place appropriate density for it and you need to workout as below) density of mild steel= 7850 kg/m3 mass of steel = 0.25x7850 = 1962.50 Kg weight of steel = 1962.50x9.81 = 19252.13 N A little time saver for next time: Area of steel = 2.5x1.25 = 3.125 sqm so mass per sqm = 1962.50/3.125 = 628 Kg weight per sqm = 19252.13/3.125 = 6160.68 N
5.6kg
formula of steel weight per sqm
37.2 cbm to sqm
Now a days ,gauge is normally replaced by mm size, for calculating per SQM wt of GI sheet just multiply 7850 by thickness in mm i.e per SQM wt of 0.55 mm sheet 7850x0.55 = 4.31 Kg/sqm
144 sqft is 13.378 sqm
144 sqm just multiply both
24.75 Kg/Sqm
