Formula Used

The steel weight is calculated using the standard formula:

Weight (kg) = (D² × L) / 162

Where:

  • D = diameter of the bar in millimeters (mm)
  • L = length of the bar in meters (m)

If the length is given in feet, it will be converted to meters using:

L (m) = L (ft) × 0.3048

✅ How to Use:

  1. Select the diameter unit – millimeter or inch
  2. Enter the diameter of the steel bar
  3. Select the length unit – meter, foot, or millimeter
  4. Enter the length of the bar
  5. Click the Calculate button to get the steel weight in kilograms

The tool will also show you the weight of a standard 12-meter bar of the same diameter in both meters and feet.

✅ Why Use This Tool:

  • Saves time and eliminates manual errors
  • Useful for preparing bar bending schedules (BBS)
  • Helps in checking steel quantities for procurement
  • Good for BOQ preparation, estimation, and billing
