In this article, we will explain how to work out the unit weight of M.S. angle for billing.
The angles may come in different dimensions like 20x20x3 mm, 25 x 25 x 3 mm, 25 x 25 x 5 mm, 30x30x3 mm, 40x40x3 mm.
But we will make the calculation for the angle having size 20x20x3 mm i.e. both sides of the angle are 20 mm and thickness is 3 mm.
The calculation is done for 1 meter.
The parts of the angle are divided as part A and part B.
Next, find out the volume of A i.e. length x breadth x height = 0.02 x 0.003 x 1 m (after converting milli meter to meter).
Then, find out the volume of B i.e. 0.017 x 0.003 x1 m (after deducting thickness of 3 mm from length of 20 mm).
As the angle is made of steel, so find out the density of steel i.e. 7850 kg/m3
Find out the weight of the following formula :
Volume of A + Volume of B) x 7850 = 0.9 kg/m
In this manner, you can calculate the weight of other angles.
