How it was calculated

The weight is the section area multiplied by the material density:

kg/m ≈ t × (b + h − t) × 0.00785, per EN 10055.

For T section 50×50×6, the section area is 5.64 cm², so 1 metre = 5.64 × 0.785 = 4.427 kg.

The real weight can differ by a few percent because of rolling tolerances. For other materials or lengths use the calculator.
