Steel Beam Weight Formula

Follow this formula to calculate weight of a beam

Weight = Volume x Density

To calculate Beam Weight per unit length, use following formula

Weight per unit length = A x ρ
Where "ρ" means density
"A" means Beam Cross-sectional area in square meters, m²

Following formula can be used to Calculate Steel Beam Weight per meter

Weight per meter = Cross-sectional area x ρ (Density)

Formula to calculate total beam weight

Total Weight = Weight per meter x L (Length)
