How it was calculated
The weight is the section area multiplied by the material density:
kg/m ≈ t × (2a − t) × 0.00785 plus a small correction for the root radius, per EN 10056.For Angle 40×40×5, the section area is 3.79 cm², so 1 metre = 3.79 × 0.785 = 2.974 kg.
The real weight can differ by a few percent because of rolling tolerances. For other materials or lengths use the calculator.
