Concrete Column Weight Calculator
Example Column Dimensions and Weights:
Here is a basic table based on typical column shapes like rectangular and circular.
| Column Shape | Cross-sectional Dimensions (Width x Depth for Rectangular / Diameter for Circular) | Height (m) | Volume (m³) | Weight (kg) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Rectangular | 0.5 m x 0.5 m (Width x Depth) | 3.0 m | 0.75 m³ | 1,800 kg |
| Rectangular | 1.0 m x 1.0 m (Width x Depth) | 4.0 m | 4.0 m³ | 9,600 kg |
| Circular | 0.5 m (Diameter) | 3.0 m | 0.196 m³ | 470 kg |
| Circular | 1.0 m (Diameter) | 4.0 m | 3.141 m³ | 7,538 kg |
Explanation:
- Cross-sectional Dimensions: The size of the base area of the column. Rectangular columns have a width and depth, while circular columns use the diameter.
- Height: The vertical length of the column.
- Volume: Volume = Cross-sectional Area × Height
- Weight: Weight = Volume × Concrete Density (2,400 kg/m³).
