How it was calculated
The weight is the section area multiplied by the material density:
kg/m ≈ t × (b + h − t) × 0.00785, per EN 10055.For T section 40×40×5, the section area is 3.75 cm², so 1 metre = 3.75 × 0.785 = 2.944 kg.
The real weight can differ by a few percent because of rolling tolerances. For other materials or lengths use the calculator.
