Where can I find some good charts on various steel weights per foot or lineal foot?
Reply:Go here and see what this free metal weight calculator is like. I downloaded a freeby from them some years ago and it's pretty handy. This one is probably the same one ?? http://www.suppliersonline.com/Default.aspAbout 3/4's of the way down on the page.
Reply:if you take the thickness of steel multiply it by the width of steel then multiply that by the length of steel then multiply that by .2833 you will get the weight of a steel object. steel weighs .2833 per square inch. so if you had a 1/2" by 12" by 14" piece of steel your formula would look like this .50 x 12 x 14 x .2833 = 23.7972 lbs. if you have an object that is 5 foot long, your length would be 60" you have to put it in inches. has always worked well for me.
Reply:per cubic inch sorry. im goin to bed!

Reply:http://bushwickmetals.thomaswebs.net/formulas.html - You can find formulas here to calculate the nominal weights for various steel shapes. Weight calculations are based upon the theoretical weight of steel at 40.80 pounds per square foot per one inch of thickness.
