how can we determine the quantity of steel bars in a
structure? is there any formula for determing the number of
bars required ?

Answer Posted / arastu

to calculate the weight of steel in field, we use:

W = (d*d/162) kg/m

where d= dia of bar in mm

this is formula u can drive from Density = (weight/volume)

density of steel = 7850kg/m3
volume of bar (1 m length) = 3.14/4*d*d*1

Is This Answer Correct ?    58 Yes 5 No
