Plate Weight Calculator sqm to kg

To create a table showing the weight of steel plates in kg per square meter (sqm), we need to consider the thickness of the plate and the density of steel. Let’s create a comprehensive table that will help you quickly determine the weight of steel plates of various thicknesses.

Steel Plate Weight: kg per sqm

Here’s a table showing the weight of steel plates in kg per square meter for different thicknesses:

Thickness (mm)	Weight (kg/sqm)
1	7.85
2	15.70
3	23.55
4	31.40
5	39.25
6	47.10
8	62.80
10	78.50
12	94.20
15	117.75
20	157.00
25	196.25
30	235.50
40	314.00
50	392.50

This table is based on the average density of steel, which is approximately 7,850 kg/m³4. To calculate the weight per square meter, we multiply the thickness (in meters) by the density. For example, for a 1 mm thick plate:1 mm = 0.001 m
0.001 m × 7,850 kg/m³ = 7.85 kg/sqm

How to Use This Table

1. Find the thickness of your steel plate in the left column.
2. The corresponding weight in kg per square meter is in the right column.
3. To calculate the total weight of your plate, multiply the weight per sqm by the total area of your plate in square meters.

For example, if you have a 5 mm thick steel plate that is 2 meters wide and 3 meters long:

1. From the table, a 5 mm thick plate weighs 39.25 kg/sqm.
2. The area of your plate is 2 m × 3 m = 6 sqm.
3. Total weight = 39.25 kg/sqm × 6 sqm = 235.5 kg.

This table provides a quick and easy way to estimate the weight of steel plates for various projects and calculations
