Best Answer

The weight is determined by the amount of metal contained in a one foot length of a 4 inch diameter round rod. To find the amount of the aluminum's weight by volume, do the following:

Find the cross-sectional area of the circle at the end of the round rod:

Radius (r) = diameter/2 = (4 inches)/2 = 2 inches

Area (A) = radius(squared) * PI = (2)^2 * 3.14159 = 12.566 square inches

Multiply by the length of the rod:

Volume (V) = Area * Length = 12.566 sq.in. * 12 inches = 150.8 cubic inches

According to the page at

What_is_the_weight_of_one_cubic_inch_of_6061_aluminum

, the weight of one cubic inch of 6061 alluminum alloy is .0975 lb. So multiply the volume of the round rod in cubic inches by this weight:

Total weight (W) = 150.8 cubic inches * .0975 lb. = 14.7 lb. (Answer!)

If you happen to have had an Aluminum bar that was rectangular instead of round, the area would be instead calculated as A= width * height, and all subsequent calculations afterwards would remain the same.

I assume the 'railings' mean the horizontal bar that often runs on the floor along the foot of the bar. If this is the case, the bar is there so a patron standing or leaning while drinking at the bar can put a foot on it - so the rail is a foot bar.
