Round Steel Weight Formula
Weight (kg) = Cross-sectional Area × Length × Density
Detailed formula:
kg = (π × D² ÷ 4) × L × ρ ÷ 1,000,000
Where:
- D: Diameter (mm)
- L: Length (m)
- ρ: Material density (g/cm³)
Simplified formula (Carbon Steel):
Weight per meter (kg/m) = 0.00617 × Diameter² (mm)

| Diameter (mm) | Weight per Meter (kg/m) | 6m Bar Weight (kg) | 9m Bar Weight (kg) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Φ10 | 0.617 | 3.70 | 5.55 |
| Φ16 | 1.58 | 9.48 | 14.22 |
| Φ20 | 2.47 | 14.82 | 22.23 |
| Φ25 | 3.85 | 23.10 | 34.65 |
| Φ30 | 5.55 | 33.30 | 49.95 |
| Φ40 | 9.87 | 59.22 | 88.83 |
