Carbon Steel T-Bar Weight Calculator Calculator:
Enter the values of width, W(cm), thickness, T(cm), height, H(cm) and length, L(cm) to determine the value of weight, W(g).
Carbon Steel T-Bar Weight Calculator Formula:
A T bar’s structure, characterized by its T-shaped cross-section, includes a horizontal flange and a vertical web, which together provide the component with structural stability and load-bearing capacity.
The weight of the T bar is determined by the amount of carbon steel material it contains, which is directly influenced by the bar’s dimensions specifically its width, thickness, height, and length.
The weight is calculated by subtracting the voids (areas not filled with material) from the solid cross-sectional areas, accounting for the specific T-shape. The physical interpretation involves multiplying this effective cross-sectional area by the length and density, giving the total mass or weight of the T bar.
The mass distribution is even throughout the bar, and the specific weight calculation must consider both geometrical and material properties to ensure accuracy.
The weight, W(g) in grams of an acrylic T-bar is calculated by taking the width, W(cm) in centimetres multiplied by the thickness, T(cm) in centimetres, then subtracting the product of the height, H(cm) in centimetres minus the thickness (H(cm) – T(cm)) and the thickness, T(cm). Multiply the resulting area by the length, L(cm) in centimetres and the material density, d(g/cm3) in grams per cubic centimetre.
Carbon Steel T-Bar Weight, W(g) = [W(cm) * T(cm) – (H(cm) – T(cm)) * T(cm)] * L(cm) * d(g/cm3)
W(g) = carbon steel T-bar weight in grams, g.
W(cm) = width in centimetres, cm.
T(cm) = thickness in centimetres, cm.
H(cm) = height in centimetres, cm.
d(g/cm3) = density in grams per cubic centimetres, cm.
L(cm) = length in centimetres, cm.
Carbon Steel T-Bar Weight Calculation:
- A Carbon Steel T bar has a width (W) of 10 cm, a height (H) of 6 cm, a thickness (T) of 1 cm, and a length (L) of 200 cm. The density (d) of carbon steel is 7.85 g/cm3. Calculate the weight of the T bar.
Given: W(cm) = 10cm, T(cm) = 1cm, H(cm) = 6cm, L(cm) = 200cm, d(g/cm3) = 7.85g/cm3.
Carbon Steel T-Bar Weight, W(g) = [W(cm) * T(cm) – (H(cm) – T(cm)) * T(cm)] * L(cm) * d(g/cm3)
W(g) = [10 * 1 – (6 – 1) * 1] * 200 * 7.85
W(g) =5 * 200 * 7.85
W(g) = 7850g.
- A Carbon Steel T bar has a width (W) of 8 cm, a height (H) of 5 cm, a thickness (T) of 1 cm, and weighs 3925 g. The density (d) of carbon steel is 7.85 g/cm3. Calculate the length of the T bar.
Given: W(cm) = 8cm, T(cm) = 1cm, H(cm) = 5cm, W(g) = 3925g, d(g/cm3) = 7.85g/cm3.
Carbon Steel T-Bar Weight, W(g) = [W(cm) * T(cm) – (H(cm) – T(cm)) * T(cm)] * L(cm) * d(g/cm3)
L(cm) = W(g) / [W(cm) * T(cm) – (H(cm) – T(cm)) * T(cm)] * d(g/cm3)
L(cm) = 3925 / [8 * 1 – (5 – 1) * 1] * 7.85
L(cm) = 3925 / 94.2
L(cm) = 41.67cm.
