1) MILD STEEL (MS)
SHEET
WEIGHT (KGS) = LENGTH (MM) X WIDTH (MM) X 0. 00000785 X THICKNESS
example – The weight of MS Sheet of 1mm thickness and size 1250 MM X 2500 MM shall be
2500MM X 1250 MM X 0.00000785 X 1 = 24.53 KGS/ SHEET
ROLLED STEEL CHANNELS
MS SQUARE
WEIGHT (KGS ) = WIDTH X WIDTH X 0.00000785 X LENGTH.
Example : A Square of size 25mm and length 1 metre then the weight shall be.
25x25X 0.00000785 X 1000mm = 4.90 kgs/metre
MS ROUND
WEIGHT (KGS ) = 3.14 X 0.00000785 X ((diameter / 2)X( diameter / 2)) X LENGTH.
Example : A Round of 20mm diameter and length 1 metre then the weight shall be.
3.14 X 0.00000785 X ((20/2) X ( 20/2)) X 1000 mm = 2.46 kgs / metre
SS ROUND
DIA (mm) X DIA (mm) X 0.00623 = WEIGHT PER METRE
SS / MS Pipe
OD ( mm) – W.Tthick(mm) X W.Thick (mm) X 0.0248 = Weight Per Metre
OD ( mm) – W.Tthick(mm) X W.Thick (mm) X 0.00756 = Weight Per Foot
SS / MS CIRCLE
DIA(mm) X DIA (mm) X THICK(mm) 0.0000063 = Kg Per Piece
SS sheet
Length (Mtr) X Width (Mtr) X Thick(mm) X 8 = Weight Per Piece
Length (ft) X Width (ft) X Thick(inch) X 3 /4 = Weight Per Piece
S.S HEXAGONAL BAR
DIA (mm) X DIA (mm) X 0.00680 = WT. PER Mtr
Dia (mm) X Dia (mm) X 0.002072 = Wt. Per foot.
BRASS SHEET
WEIGHT (KGS) = LENGTH (MM) X BREADTH (MM) X 0. 0000085 X THICKNESS
Example – The weight of brass sheet of thickness 1 mm, length 1220mm and breadth 355mm shall be
1220 X355X 0.0000085 X 1 = 3.68 Kgs/Sheet
COPPER SHEET
WEIGHT (KGS) = LENGTH (MM) X BREADTH (MM) X 0. 0000087 X THICKNESS
Example – The weight of coppper sheet of thickness 1 mm, length 1220mm and breadth 355mm shall be
1220X355 X 0.0000087 X 1 = 3.76 Kgs/Sheet
BRASS / COPPER PIPE
OD (mm) – THICK (mm) X THICK(mm) X 0.0260 = WEIGHT PER METRE
ALUMINUM SHEET
WEIGHT (KGS) = LENGTH (MM) X BREADTH (MM) X 0. 00000026 X THICKNESS
Example – The weight of Aluminum sheet of thickness 1 mm, length 2500mm and breadth 1250 mm shall be
2500x1250X 0.0000026 X 1 = 8.12 Kgs/Sheet

We are extremely thankful to Er. Harpal Aujla for sharing this on our site and thus helping civil engineering students.
If you have a query, you can ask a question here.
Can u halp me to calculate the weight of a MS pipe which OD is 32mm , Thickness 4mm & length is 72MTR.
(.785 x (.032 SQUARE MINUS .024 SQUARE) x 72) x SP.WT OF MS
plz send me formula of copper purirty if dia and resistance are avaiable.
or if you know an other calculation plz indicate me
thanks

SS / MS Pipe
OD ( mm) – W.Tthick(mm) X W.Thick (mm) X 0.0248 = Weight Per Metre
OD ( mm) – W.Tthick(mm) X W.Thick (mm) X 0.00756 = Weight Per Foot
I do not understand anything.
what is od ?
what is W.Tthick(mm) X W.Thick (mm)?
can u tell me this with an exmple.
actually i want to know how we can calculate round pipe weight and square pipe weight.
Budy, this formula is correct for SS ASTM Grades ERW/Welded pipes but its different figure for MS Welded/ERW piped.
can tell me how we can calculate round pipe weight and square pipe.
please give me example.
detail
thats od – thickness x thickness x 0.02465 is d weight per metre
dor tube : assuming u calculATING FOR 50 X 50 X 2MM X 6MTR
50 X 4 ( ALL FOUR SIDE ) X THICKNESS ( 2 MM ) X 0.0455 = 18.2KG PER 6 MTR LENGTH
mind u mr. patel this is theoritical way of calculating pipes, where as kanta karoge to weight mein tolerance milega
hello sir my name is dilip,i am Commerce graduate.but with the help of your website i am able to calculate right thing
Dear Sir
I need New version Str.steel Weight calculator.

this type of calculation of raw material will help the customer and suppliers
Hello Sir,
will u please help me to calculate weight of M.S pipe 1″N.B.pipe upto 20’length in kilograms
These weight formula realy very helpful I thanks, i hope this is good work and request to keep it up.
