Steel :

Steel is one of the major products in the construction of structures which helps to withstand building for long-lasting. The technical name of steel in engineering is reinforcement and it is also termed TMT bars.

     Steel Type     TMT Bars
     Technical Name    Reinforcement
     Chemical Name    Ferrous (or) Fe
     Available Grade    415, 500, 550, 550D
     Rod Length    12 meter (or) 40 Feet
     Available form    Roll / length

How to Calculate Steel Weight :

  To calculate the weight of the steel, the following formula is used

                         Weight of steel per meter = ( D X D ) / 162.  (where D is the dia of the rod)

Example :

To calculate 8mm dia rod weight per meter

                  =  (8X8)/162  = 0.395 Kg

To calculate the weight of a single rod of 8mm dia

                  = 12 X 0.395 = 4.740 Kg
