Plate weight
94.20kg
Estimated plate weight.
Plate volume
0.0120m3
Calculated plate volume.
Explanation
What this calculates
Thickness is converted to metres before multiplying by plate area and material density.
Formula
Weight = length x width x thickness x density
Inputs are validated on screen and converted where unit options are available.
Worked Example
Example result
A 2.4 m x 1.2 m x 10 mm steel plate weighs about 226.08 kg.

Related FAQs
Does this include root radius?
No. Use supplier section tables for final weights.
From Angle Iron Weight Calculator
Can I estimate unequal angle?
Use the material quantity result as a check only; this calculator assumes equal angle.
From Angle Iron Weight Calculator
Does this work for pipe?
It can estimate pipe weight when outside diameter, wall thickness and density are known.
From CHS Weight Calculator
Why might supplier tables differ?
Manufacturing tolerances and rounded section properties can create small differences.

Does this include cutting waste?
No. Add fabrication waste and offcuts separately when pricing material orders.
Can I use it for aluminium?
Yes, change the density to the material density supplied by your fabricator or supplier.
