Steel Weight Calculator

Accurate estimation of steel weight is essential for budgeting, fabrication planning, and project costing.
This Steel Weight Calculator helps engineers, fabricators, and buyers compute the weight of steel sections and estimate total material cost using density-based calculations.

Calculate Steel Weight & Material Cost

  1. Select the steel shape (plate, bar, pipe, square, etc.).

  2. Enter the required dimensions.

  3. Enter the length of the material.

  4. (Optional) Enter cost per kg to estimate project cost.

  5. Click Calculate to get steel weight and total material price.

FAQ

Q1. How is steel weight calculated?

By multiplying the material’s volume with steel density → 7850 kg/m³.

Q2. Does the calculator support multiple shapes?

Yes—plate, round bar, square bar, pipe/tube.

Q3. Is this accurate for fabrication work?

Yes. It follows standard density-based calculations used in industry.

Q4. Can I calculate steel cost?

Yes—just enter the price per kg.
