Steel Weight calculation formula
The steel weight calculation formula is:
Weight (kg) = Sectional Area (mm2) × Length (m) × Density (ρ, g/cm3)× 1/1000
Above is the formula to calculate the steel weight in kg.
For the metal density, you can also refer to:
- Density Table of Metals (Iron, Steel, Brass, Aluminum) and Alloys
- Density Table for Commonly Used Sheet Metal Materials
P.S: Among all of the steel weight calculation formula in the following part, there are two kinds of steel that are not mentioned, which are I beam steel and H beam steel.
If you want to know the difference between H beam steel and I beam steel as well as the methods to calculate the weight of H beam steel and I beam steel, you check it out from the following two quick links:
- H-beam (W-beam) vs I-beam Steel (14 Difference Analysis)
- H Beam & I Beam Weight Calculator (Weight Chart in Kg)

You can download it at the bottom of the article.
My wife & I have tried several times, and nothing seems to happen. We have checked both of our emails and checked downloads and files on our computer. Could you send us the link?
I tried the download part at the end of this post, it’s working after you submit your email address.
