What is Rebar Weight?

Rebar Weight refers to the weight of a steel reinforcing bar used in construction. The weight is calculated based on the radius and length of the rebar, along with a constant that represents the density of steel.

Example Calculations

Example 1:

Using the formula:

\[ RW = \pi \left( \frac{0.5}{12} \right)^2 \cdot 10 \cdot 490 \approx 26.73 \, \text{lbs} \]

The Rebar Weight is approximately 26.73 lbs.

Example 2:

Using the formula:

\[ RW = \pi \left( \frac{0.75}{12} \right)^2 \cdot 20 \cdot 490 \approx 120.26 \, \text{lbs} \]

The Rebar Weight is approximately 120.26 lbs.
